Thanks to one of the posters on our message boards we've got a short exerpt from the Land of the Dead (formerly Dead Reckoning) script. This excert is actually included in a special documentary on the Dawn of the Dead Ultimate Edition DVD. Read below for the excerpt!

EXT THE CITY FROM AFAR DAY
MONTAGE: Showing that...
there are seven BRIDGES spanning the rivers. Six of them are BARRICADED and heavily guarded by MILITIA and MACHINE GUNS, ROCKET LAUNCHERS, TANKS.
DEAD THINGS are clustered by the thousands at the barricades, but they can't get through. A FEW try, and are MOWED DOWN.

THE DEAD are clustered here, too, on the outside, but they are behaving more cautiously. They've learned that the fences bring a "second death", final death. All along the outer fence CORPSES hang suspended on electric barbs.
MILITARY MEN and WOMEN stand ever watchful.

MILITARY MAN.
Take his face off.
