A group of various people are tricked into attending a movie premiere at a dilapidated cinema and while the horror movie is screening, members of the audience start to transform into flesh-eating monster.

Derivative of zombie flicks, this European horror film from producer Dario Argento has similarities to his earlier work, with much bloodshed and gore, as well as some rather grizzly makeup effects. It became something of a cult favourite on home video.
