Introduced by Steven Kostanski.

In the middle of a routine patrol, Officer Daniel Carter happens upon a blood-soaked figure limping down a deserted stretch of road. He rushes the young man to a nearby rural hospital which is staffed by a skeleton crew, only to discover that patients and personnel are transforming into something inhuman. As the horror intensifies, Carter leads the other survivors on a hellish voyage into the subterranean depths of the hospital in a desperate bid to end the nightmare before it’s too late. Veteran members of Astron 6 have created an over-the-top homage to the great horror films of the 1980’s.

Sponsored by FanQuest.

Reviews

Nightmarish...the results recall beasts from films as diverse as John Carpenter’s The Thing, Stuart Gordon’s From Beyond, and Clive Barker’s Hellraiser...fantastic effects make for horrific fun.
