When her sister and father mysteriously vanish, Mary knows something sinister is at play. Determined to uncover the truth, Mary starts digging into the events surrounding her sister and father’s disappearances. At the same time, hard-nosed police Chief Clarke and a new transfer, Detective Wallace, eager to prove himself, begin piecing together clues linked to the recent strange occurrences. The deeper they delve, the more they realize that something far worse than they imagined is unfolding in Marlow. Terror grips the town as a full-blown zombie outbreak erupts, leaving chaos in its wake. The military is swiftly deployed, led by the over-the-top Colonel Talbit, who declares a state of emergency. Amidst the panic, Mary finds an unlikely ally in Wayne, a chain-smoking greaser with a heart of gold and a knack for trouble. As they investigate further, they uncover Dracula’s true plan: to build an unstoppable army of vampire zombies, using the unsuspecting townspeople of Marlow as HIS soldiers. His goal is to unleash this nightmarish force upon the world, plunging it into eternal darkness under his rule.
Mary, Wayne, Chief Clarke, and Wallace must band together to stop Dracula before his army grows too powerful to contain. Their mission is clear: Stop Dracula and his undead legion before they overrun Marlow…and possibly the world!

SYNOPSIS: A young country boy is plunged into the depths of homicidal madness after witnessing the strange exploits of a carnival “geek,” a caged drunk so desperate for whisky that he bites the heads off live chickens in front of a freak show audience. Thirty years later, Luther is all grown up and out on parole, after spending his childhood behind bars for a series of grisly murders. Armed with only a pair of razor-sharp metal dentures and only able to communicate through chicken clucks, Luther restarts his bloody rampage as he terrorizes the citizens of a small town and takes a young mother and her family hostage in their isolated farmhouse.
