When foreman Frank (James Karen) shows new employee Freddy (Thom Mathews) a secret military experiment in a supply warehouse, the two klutzes accidentally release a gas that reanimates corpses into flesh-eating zombies. As the epidemic spreads throughout Louisville, Ky., and the creatures satisfy their hunger in gory and outlandish ways, Frank and Freddy fight to survive with the help of their boss (Clu Gulager) and a mysterious mortician (Don Calfa).

About The Abhorrent Cinema:

Inspired by the legacy of glamour ghouls, late-night macabre shows, and the vaudevillian roots of drive-in movies, The Abhorrent Cinema is a celebration of cinema both creepy and camp. Chicago cabaret artist and film buff Noah Grey is the ghostly host of this monthly movie screening variety show that features a different spooktacular picture each month, accompanied by an opening act of genre-inspired burlesque numbers from a roster of ghoulish guest performers.
