Description: Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the cemetery, those brain-eating zombies are back and hungry for more tasty mortals. A fiendish mix of outrageous humor and heart-stopping terror, this "veritable smorgasbord of fun" (L.A. Herald Examiner) delivers skin-crawling jolts, eye-popping visuals and relentless surprises!
