Conrad Radzoff (Ferdinand Mayne), a hammy horror film star, murders his director and then dies himself--killed by his own overacting. When a group of Radzoff's fans, members of the Horror Film Society, exhume his body, his widow is angry that they have defiled his tomb. She hires a medium
to bring her beloved husband back to life, this time as a real-life zombie. Radzoff's reanimated body then goes on a mass killing spree, wreaking a terrible vengeance on the misguided teens who disturbed his eternal rest. This self-consciously silly horror movie makes the fatal mistake of
referring to other, much better horror films, thus continually reminding the viewer how lame ...
