Le Carrefour des enfants perdus est un film français réalisé par Léo Joannon et sorti en 1944.

Synopsis

A l'armistice de la drôle de guerre, un jeune journaliste, Jean Victor, fonde un centre de rééducation "nouvelle formule" pour les jeunes délinquants. Sa méthode est basée sur la confiance qu'il fait aux jeunes placés sous sa garde. Il veut ainsi réagir contre les méthodes des maisons de correction qu'il a personnellement subies. Il pourra compter sur ses deux adjoints Malory et Ferrant, eux aussi d'anciens délinquants. Une rébellion éclate, montée par le plus dur des jeunes, Jorisse, qui compromet l'existence du « Carrefour des enfants perdus ». Les conséquences dramatiques de cette révolte, ainsi que l'arrivée du petit frère de Jorisse, La Puce, ouvrent les yeux du coupable.

On one of his tours, he is leading Colonel Geoffrey Brydon and his men as well as Brydon's five-year-old daughter Katherine. That night, the deadly tiger Shere Khan attacks the encampment, killing some soldiers who had been hunting down several animals for fun in the jungle earlier, which had enraged him.

The film takes place in a 1950s-esque alternate universe where radiation from space has turned the dead into zombies. This resulted in the "Zombie Wars", where humanity battled zombies to prevent a zombie apocalypse, with humanity the ultimate victor. The radiation still plagues humanity, as all those who die after the original contamination turn into the undead, unless the dead body is disposed of by decapitation or cremation. In order to continue living normal lives, communities are fenced with the help of a governing corporation named Zomcon. Zomcon provides collars with accompanying remote controls to control the zombies' hunger for flesh so as to use them as slaves or servants.
