What happens

Aquarium of the Dead is a 2021 American zombie comedy-horror science fiction film directed by Glenn Miller and written by Marc Gottlieb and Michael Varrati. The film stars Vivica A. Fox, Eva Ceja, and D. C. Douglas. It is a spin-off to The Asylum's Zoombies franchise. The film features zombie-like aquatic animals. The film opens with the apparent death of an octopus at an aquarium. It soon reanimates, killing two people before escaping. The slime of the octopus infects the other animals of the aquarium. Zombified spider crabs are the first animals to attack staff members and tourists, zombified crocodiles and walruses. The reanimated animals are all blind and navigate based on sound.
