A city is taken over by zombies infected with an unknown virus. The CDC announces that a cure is not possible. But that’s when (insert hot actor’s name here) steps in and saves the day by (insert a crazy medical process that is very unlikely to cure anything here). We have all seen plots like this before, but how many of us know when scientific accuracy transitions to artistic creativity? Join us for a discussion about science in cinema, where scientists will help explain the factual inaccuracies within some of our favorite movies.
