While investigating some frightening crimes that lead a pharmaceutical company, officers Roger Mortis (Treat Williams) and his partner Doug Bigelow (Joe Piscopo) pay a visit to Dante Laboratories. What they find shocks them and changes the course of their lives -- a high-tech "resurrection room" that has been churning out a weird band of recycled and indestructible criminals, and which eventually transforms Mortis into the undead!
