A psychic seemingly dies of fright during a séance where she sees a vision of a Dunwich priest hanging himself in a church cemetery. New York City reporter Peter Bell investigates and learns that the priest's suicide has somehow opened a portal to Hell that must be sealed by All Saints Day, or else the dead will overtake humanity.

The gore went crazy. And I love all the fog and haze too. The moment where the man was trying to get the woman out of the casket was so tense omg.

The electric drill and intestine scenes are deservedly infamous, but Catriona MacColl clawing the at the inside of her casket set my teeth on edge.

Wow wow!! I really liked this—I’m finding 70s/80s horror to be a new love of mine. Practical effects were great, but not while I was eating. Definitely recommend, great zombie flick!!
