**However, there is a scene where the infected Lane commits suicide and turns, and as she attacks Campbell, she seems to mouth the words "Kill me" while in the middle of screaming madly, at which point Campbell complies with her request by caving in her skull with a rock. So there might be some evidence to this after all.

* BolivianArmyEnding: The film ends with Campbell stranded in Martian orbit, unable to reach the spaceship to Earth (but still having enough fuel to make the lander re-entry, which he will do if he needs to commit suicide), with enough supplies within the lander to live on until a rescue ship arrives (if one is sent)... and he is possibly infected with the zombie virus. He reports all of these facts to Earth and the movie cuts while he's awaiting their decision.
* FightingFromTheInside: DiscussedTrope, but finally averted: the one person who seemingly tries this was probably long dead by the time the "fighting" reflex appeared (which makes it just that, a reflex), and the vaccine given to him to help with the fighting is completely useless against the infection (at best, the substance stuns the zombie for a moment).
* SurvivalHorror: This movie follows some of the more basic tenets of the trope, especially in that the zombies are very hard to stop (and [[DeathWorld the environment of Mars]] doesn't helps in any way) and thus the best solution is to run away.
