That would make sense. Now you point it out it does seem the most likely answer. But my explanation is much more fun and much better suited to a movie adaptation, so I’m sticking with it 🤣
The sequel will follow the police task force chasing after UMG, who was arrested at the end of the first movie, but has escaped from police custody. As well as attempting to recapture UMG, they will be caught up in a desperate race against time to rescue the victims - who it turns out have not been killed, but instead have been buried alive. Hoping a cure for the zombie virus could be found UMG buried the victims with a supply of food and air, but to prevent infected people being dug up before a cure was discovered the underground prisons have been boobie trapped. The only way to disarm the trap is to dial a special code to the victim’s phone - if they start digging without the code or get it wrong it will set off gruesome boobie traps killing both the initial victim and the person digging.
There will be a further sequel too - Stop, Drop and Roll. It will have a completely different director though, who will take the franchise in the direction of dark comedy. In this one, it will become apparent that UMG is not actually insane and that the zombie virus is real. Because it is transmitted via communications lines the initial infection will focus on the emergency services communications staff, meaning the efforts to combat the virus must avoid all official channels. The protagonists are a group of young misfits who discover that marijuana provides immunity to the virus. They develop a plan to drug the food supply to save everyone, but in order to carry it out they must avoid being caught by anyone in any of the emergency services. They discover that infected people have extremely limited attention spans for anything not on their phones, so if they are spotted they stop moving, drop out of sight, and roll a joint. Obviously they have to carry out the entire plan completely stoned with frequent stops for snacks.
Magpies maybe.

I’m just here for the sequel, “Dial before you Dig”
