!!This film contains examples of:
* ActionPrologue: Quinn's unit's first encounter with the zombies, and their eventual slaughter.
* AndTheAdventureContinues: [[spoiler:After Quinn blows up the base where the zombies are rampaging, he decides to use his newfound powers and legal nonexistence to start helping people.]]
* ArchEnemy: Lieutenant Bobby Quinn has [[spoiler:Dr. Scott, who sent his mercenary team on the mission that got them killed, and intends to harvest his blood to sell off the zombie plague as an immortality serum]].
* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: Quinn's unit are first killed when an infected scientist drops a grenade so he doesn't turn. This releases the scorpions which proceed to infect them all.
* BigBad: [[spoiler:Dr. Scott, a scientist seeking to sell the zombie infection for his own profit.]]
* ClearMyName: Quinn and Judson are assumed to be a couple of spree killers due to the police always finding them ''just after'' they kill all the zombies, who as far as they know are innocent people.
* DeadToBeginWith: Quinn is killed in the first scene, only to be brought back as a ZombieInfectee.
* DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: Quinn accidentally throws Dr. Flutie across the autopsy room due to not knowing he has SuperStrength.
* GoodThingYouCanHeal: [[spoiler:In order to escape before the zombie-filled base explodes, Quinn uses his own body as a jumper cable to recharge a Jeep's battery.]]
* GroinAttack: A zombie with dwarfism bites a redneck right in the genitals.
* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler:Dr. Scott claims that he's conquering death for everybody by turning them into zombies, but his initial motivation was to stop his "special" mind from dying of cancer, he intends to make a hefty profit from selling the serum, and he thinks keeping women attractive is just as valuable a good as preventing children from losing their parents.]]
* NotWhatItLooksLike: Quinn says this verbatim when confronted by police surrounded by a bunch of zombie corpses.
* OurZombiesAreDifferent: These are transferred by a scorpion sting where the venom turns into a scorpion itself. It imbues the infected with SuperStrength and a HealingFactor while shutting down all vital functions. They retain some intelligence in this state, but crave raw meat and eventually turn into shambling creatures that can only be killed by decapitation. When they do die, the scorpion crawls out to sting somebody else. Also, their blood is green.
* ScaryScorpions: The zombies are made by a parasitic scorpion known as the jin du, which reproduces by infecting other beings with its venom, which makes them ravenous zombies as a side effect.
* ShoutOut:
** The title is a spoof on ''Film/DumbAndDumber''.
** Quinn directly compares his HealingFactor to ''ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}''.
** Two soldiers named [[Creator/SeanConnery Connery]] and [[Creator/GeorgeLazenby Lazenby]] argue about who's the best Franchise/JamesBond star.
* TheSociopath: [[spoiler:Dr. Scott, a scientist seeking immortality, who does not care if he causes a ZombieApocalypse so long as he keeps his own "special" mind alive, and believes that keeping women attractive is just as valuable as preventing children from losing their parents.]]
* TakeThat: Quinn's story about the zombie attack is described as having "more holes than a Creator/MichaelBay movie."
* TokenHeroicOrc: Quinn is the only sapient, let alone good, zombie, due to cutting the scorpion out of him before it could destroy his mind.
