Eph Goodweather, who investigates biological threats to the CDC, is called in and discovers all the passengers dead, and signs that a strange being had been aboard the vessel."

That is the first episode of Fringe.

That being said the first two books are the stuff that Walking Dead fans worship (vampires, plagues, gore, all that shit)

Ironically wikipedia tells me that The Strain was considered a bad book by some and that it was too obviously a TV and/or film project … still, there's that Jean Rollin quote …
