A mysterious film reel sparks a zombie epidemic at a midnight screening of George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead. An independent movie theater is barely making enough cash to stay afloat when the employees discover an unmarked film reel stashed away in the ceiling. With a midnight screening of the gut-munching classic coming up, they decide it would be the perfect opportunity to share their find with a theater full of rabid horror fans. But this is no B-movie trailer, it's a Nazi mind-control experiment captured on film. When the sinister celluloid reel transforms the enthusiastic moviegoers into flesh-eating freaks, the terrified theater workers struggle to survive the night while figuring out a way to stop the infection from spreading to the streets.
