Another Horrifying Dream

I don’t know what my head’s problem is. It seems to be infected, or something. Or maybe it’s reacting to the fact that I haven’t watched horror movies lately as much as I normally do. So, my head has to make up horror movies of its own.
This was one of those dreams that played out like a movie. My own person switched around a lot. Sometimes it was like I was watching the events going on, and sometimes it seemed like I was one of the people- a boy, or a young man.
It began normal enough in a hotel. There was a younger brother, an older brother, and a girlfriend (to the youngest brother). I don’t know why they were there or what was going on, all I know was that during the dream, the hotel came under attack by creatures that were not human. They were like… zombies. These creatures were like muscular zombies whose mouths turned to what looked like metal. It seemed like metal, anyway. These creatures were absolutely brutal and ate human flesh, but also just liked tearing it apart. I think what they had was also like an infection because the people who didn’t get killed ended up turning into them. In some ways, it seemed in the dream to be airborne, but it also seemed something that could be passed if you were bitten by one of them.
So, this hotel was in chaos. Those zombie things were in there tearing people apart. I remember a scene in the dream where two jumped on a guy and ripped his jaw off completely. They ripped it off just to be brutal, just to rip it off. So, needless to say, there was a lot of running and screaming and those monster things were increasing ten fold by the minute because other people kept turning.
The younger boy got separated from his older brother in the chaos, but he still had his girlfriend. They hid in a closet for a while and there were quite a few close calls of those monsters almost finding them as they shifted from one hiding place to the next, abandoning one for new places when it seemed they were in danger of being found out. It was a really tense dream. At one point, the boy was almost attacked by a zombie thingy that was once his older brother. In other words, his brother had turned into one of those monsters during their separation. But, it seemed like the older brother retained some of his former self because he growled and drooled out of his metal looking but still strangely flesh and bone mouth and told his brother to run away, which he did.
Unfortunately, it was not over.
The boy’s girlfriend was infected. She knew it. She was sort of crying. I remember in the dream that she was trying to kiss him as she was changing. What I recall the clearest is her mouth beginning to… change, almost like tar up. Small black dripping spots began to form around her mouth and chin. I guess this was what happened right before your mouth turned into that metal thing that chomped down on people’s flesh and bone.
Needless to say, the boy ran like hell.
I don’t really remember anything else, nothing that I can put in sequence. I remember a scene where someone got their legs ripped off and the boy tried to carry them out of the hotel to safety. By this time, the attack was under control and it was safe outside, just not in the hotel. So, there were a lot of people milling around outside.
That’s it.
