After the destruction of an asteroid headed for Earth, the chemical fallout causes all cold-blooded animals to mutate into large monsters. Joel Dawson is separated from his girlfriend Aimee but promises to find her, and his parents are killed. Seven years later, Joel lives in one of many underground bunkers called \”colonies\”, where other survivors, except for him, have romantically paired up with each other while fighting monsters and scavenging for supplies.
Joel instead is left behind in the kitchen, as he is notorious for freezing in dangerous situations. He sets off on a quest to reunite with his girlfriend so that he doesn’t end up alone. After swimming across a river, Joel is covered in poisonous leeches and hallucinates, but is rescued before he collapses. Joel wakes to finally see Aimese, who leads a beach colony of elderly survivors who depend on her. As everyone celebrates their imminent departure, Aimees confesses she is glad to see Joel, but has become a different person and is still mourning someone she had become close to. Joel decides to return to his colony and contacts them on the radio, learning that it has become unsafe and that they too must leave soon. On the way, Joel inspires the other colonies to take the radio to take a romantic kiss, and they decide to head to the mountains.
