BPhoto 2 · The survivor
Tap to add a clear photo
Clear, front-facing photo of an adult who agreed, one face each. No celebrities, minors or nudity. Rules
Happy ending
The person in photo 1 has turned into a zombie. The person in photo 2 aims a rifle, can't pull the trigger, drops it and hugs them, then the scene cuts to the two of you, human again, hugging: Wildflower meadow. No shot fired, no blood. A 12-second wordless film with soft piano, nothing to type.
By pressing “Make our zombie video” you confirm you are 18 or older, you have permission from everyone in the photos, and you agree to the Terms and Acceptable Use Policy.

Why the template you saw might not be there
Templates are created by creators, rotate quickly and are not available in every region. If you cannot find the one from your feed, you may only find similar ones with a different story.
What templates cannot do
A template follows its own edit: the timing, the scenes and the ending are fixed. You cannot pick who turns, keep the rifle out, choose the happy ending, or make the pet version unless that template exists.
Make it from two photos instead
FlicLoop has the zombie love story written and tested: upload two photos, choose partner or pet, pick the ending, and it renders a 12-second vertical video in about four minutes.
Try it with two photosEditing a FlicLoop video in CapCut
FlicLoop gives you a 720p vertical MP4 with no watermark. Import it into a new CapCut project, keep the canvas at 9:16, add text or auto-captions, and export. Add the trend sound when you post in TikTok rather than in CapCut, so it stays linked to the trend.
FlicLoop vs CapCut templates vs writing your own prompt
There are three common ways to make the AI zombie trend. Here is what each one gives you, so you can pick the one that fits.
FlicLoop is independent and not affiliated with CapCut, Kling, Google (Veo) or OpenAI (Sora). Other apps change their templates and prices often.
