Tim and Tina crossed the country hauling a load of highly toxic waste. Near the end of their journey, the two decide to pull over in a small NC town to get a bite to eat. As a super storm hangs over the horizon, everyone is unaware that the gates of hell were about to open, releasing it's evil to feast. As lightning sears across the sky, striking the funeral mourners at the town cemetery, the bodies awaken to hunt and eat on the living and each other. In the piercing darkness, no one knows who will survive until dawn.
