## Prompt

```text
Create a wide cinematic post-apocalyptic scene in deserted Times Square during heavy rain, gloomy blue color grading, wet reflective pavement, towering skyscrapers forming a deep canyon perspective. In the foreground and midground, show one enormous tightly packed horde of undead pedestrians filling the street from left foreground into the far distance, with gray decayed faces, soaked dirty clothing, blank expressions, and slow forward movement. On the right midground, place one lone surviving hero standing small but elevated on the flat roof of one glass-and-metal bus shelter, wearing a dark hooded rain poncho or long coat, dark pants, and boots, holding one katana-like sword angled downward in one hand, facing the zombie crowd with a defiant stance. Surround the scene with trash piles, black garbage bags, cardboard, scattered debris, abandoned sidewalks, and puddles. The digital billboards and signs on the buildings should be mostly dark, broken, or glitching with distorted neon fragments in magenta, cyan, blue, and white; include a few flickering ad panels but no readable focus text. Use epic scale, high detail, photorealistic dark urban survival-horror style, rain haze, atmospheric depth, dramatic low-angle street perspective, and a sense of collapse and isolation. Avoid gore close-ups, avoid bright daylight, avoid clean streets, and keep the hero visibly much smaller than the surrounding city and undead crowd.
