An Enterprise away team boards a missing Vulcan ship the Seleya.
It's a decent example of a Zombie movie set on board a spaceship. I don't mean shades of Zombie-like qualities like you get with Borg episodes. I mean Enterprise has gone 'full Zombie', with moving, decaying, green skinned, wild eyed, non-communicative hoards chasing the main protagonists.
The setting is quite 'Aliens'-like in it's atmosphere as Archer, T'Pol, Malcolm and Hawkins battle through the decaying Seleya. The action moves at a fast pace and has some suspenseful moments. Particularly when they have to get a cross a thin metal beam suspended across a missing floor section of a corridor on the Seleya.
There are some good showings from all characters, particularly T'Pol who gets to let some real emotion out that works well with the plot. It looks like what happens to her in this one will impact later episodes. Malcolm has some pretty cool action moments when fighting off Zombies, which he badly needs after the way the writers have previously treated his character.
It's a well made episode, but it's just another zombie story and if you've seen 'Night The Living Dead', 'Dawn Of The Dead', 'Dead Alive', '28 Days Later' or 'Shaun Of The Dead', this isn't really going to show you much you haven't seen before.
