In rural Connecticut, baseball players Ben and Mickey are trying to survive a zombie plague. They are forced to form a battery: a catcher and a pitcher who work together to outwit the batter, the one who hits the ball. And the batter in this case just happens to be a zombie. Tough Ben and gentle Mickey frequently disagree on the best way to go about the situation. Then they suddenly hear a human voice through their walkie-talkies. Is salvation nearby, like Mickey thinks, or is Ben’s suspicion justified?
How scary is The Battery?
Nobody has rated it yet. Ratings on Scare Scale come from people who've watched the film, and score five kinds of scare out of 10:
- Gore
- Blood, injuries and body horror shown on screen. Violence that happens off-screen barely counts.
- Creepy
- Unsettling images, atmosphere and things that feel wrong. Not sudden shocks (Jumpscares) or waiting for something to happen (Suspense).
- Jumpscares
- Sudden shocks designed to make you jump, usually a fast movement or a loud noise. Not slow-building dread (Suspense).
- Suspense
- Tension and dread while you wait for something to happen. Not the scare itself when it arrives (Jumpscares or Gore).
- Psychological
- Horror that gets in your head: paranoia, madness, doubting what's real and ideas that stay with you. Not how a scene looks (Creepy) or feels in the moment (Suspense).
