A professional skateboarder named Tony Valdez is severely injured the day his parents die. After the mysterious death of his parents, an attack by mind-controlled zombies leaves Valdez severely injured. It seems likely that he'll never walk again until Tony is outfitted with the nano-technology his parents worked on. It is only with the help of this new technology that Valdez is able to regain his mobility and also gain superhuman abilities as a side effect. But it turns out this technology is connected to the death of his parents. With new powers at his disposal, Valdez fights off the zombie threat and discovers more about the murderer of his parents and the minion Taipan.Cast
