A young woman goes to a seaside town to look for her missing artist father and finds the town to be very peculiar. Her father is no where to be seen, but she does find notes in his home.
Marianna Hill is the beautiful woman caught in a web of terror in a town inhabited by people who are staring up at the sky and slowly turning into flesh eating ghouls.
There are a lot of haunting images in this well made thriller. Hill finds several other people including Michael Greer and his two female companions played by Joy Bang and the incredibly gorgeous Anitra Ford. The nightmare images I just mentioned include one where Ford walks into a grocery store and sees a group of people eating the raw meat, they see her and begin to chase he and she finds she cannot escape the store.
The other scene I will never forget involves Joy bang as she enters a theater with only three other people. As she watches the movie the theater slowly fills up with pasty faced ghouls. Slowly she notices this, but it is too late and she cannot escape. These above mentioned two scenes are guaranteed to scare the crap out of you.
There are many other shocking things in this movie and I cannot recommend it enough. A prime example of how to do horror the right way. The rest of the cast includes Royal Dano, Elisha Cook, Jr., Charles Dierkop and Bennie Robinson as an albino trucker you'll never forget.
