Following in the footsteps of "Z Nation," "Daybreak" is a fun take on the zombie apocalypse narrative from the perspective of teens. In this world, all adults have turned into zombie-like creatures called "Ghoulies," and the world is run by teenagers. Because of this, the survivors have been transformed into a campy rendition of high school, with the jocks at the top of the food chain.

"Daybreak" follows 17-year old Josh Wheeler (Colin Ford) as he hopes to rescue his girlfriend from certain doom. Throughout his journey, he's joined by a 10-year-old pyromaniac and his school bully-turned-pacifist, who's also a samurai. We know — it's a lot, but "Daybreak" is a fun approach to living in a zombie apocalypse. It uses humor over fear and still manages to outline the danger of having children lost in a zombie world. Much like "All of Us Are Dead," the high school students run the show and create their own rules without adults dictating what's right and wrong.
