As the disturbances escalate, the townspeople are confronted with an alarming reality—zombies begin emerging from their graves, driven by senses rooted in their past lives.

A dryly humorous, Romero-esque take on zombie films with standout performances, stunning A/V quality, but lacking substantial extras; recommended for a fun watch.
