In a remote 19th-century Cornish village, an evil presence lurks within the darkness of the witching hour, a mysterious plague relentlessly taking lives at an unstoppable rate. Unable to find the cause, Dr. Peter Tompson enlists the help of his former tutor Sir James Forbes. Desperate to find an antidote, what they find instead are empty coffins with the diseased corpses missing. Following a series of strange and frightening clues, Tompson and Forbes are led to a deserted mine where they discover a world of black magic and a doomed legion of flesh eating slaves... the walking dead.
