Captain Charles Brunel and crewmate Lauren Dalby plan to explore the pit to retrieve Markos body. Dalby remains at the pit but disappears before the team can return with equipment. Brunel authorizes Vincent Campbell to explore the pit, and he finds a funguslike life that grows in the fissure. Dalby and Marko reappear at the main outpost, but the Martian bacteria mutates them into fast, aggressive, zombielike creatures with blackened skin and no trace of their original personalities. Harrington dies from a power drill attack. He subsequently revives as a Martian zombie. The remaining crew hold off the zombies while Brunel and Campbell return. Brunel is fatally injured and reanimates, which provides the crew with new insight into the symptoms thirst, memory loss, and aggression.The bulk of the films middle section is taken up with fights and escapes from the zombies through the habitat modules. Eventually, mission psychologist Robert Irwin deliberately leaves scientist Kim Aldrich, who had often infuriated her crewmates, to die. Rebecca Lane is also stabbed in the leg during the frantic escape to a rover. With their rovers power low, the survivors Campbell, Irwin, and Lane decide they must get to the other rover, which is still at the site of the fissure. Under the pretense of a scouting operation, Irwin steals the second rover and unsuccessfully attempts to persuade Campbell to abandon Lane, who he states is infected. Irwin meanwhile conceals evidence of his own possible infection. ........
