The premise

When a virus leaks from a top-secret facility, turning all resident researchers into ravenous zombies and their lab animals into mutated hounds from hell, the government sends in an elite military task force to contain the outbreak.

Horror Vault's take

Deep beneath a sprawling mansion lies the Hive, a vast underground research complex now locked down after a catastrophic viral outbreak. An elite military unit is dispatched to investigate, accompanied by a woman with no memory of how she got there. What awaits them inside is far worse than a standard containment mission — the virus has rewritten the rules of life and death, and the clock is ticking for everyone involved.
