"Carpenter succeeds in delivering enough suspense and visceral shocks to satisfy most horror fans." - The Phantom of the Movies
"Alice Cooper, the one-time rock star, makes an arresting cameo appearance as a mean-spirited zombie who stands outside the church, intimidating anyone who looks through the window." - Vincent Canby, The New York Times
"This movie holds up really well. An interesting story that in many ways pits science against religion as much as it does good against evil." - Ian Jane, DVD Talk
Before man walked the earth... It slept for centuries.
A group of graduate students and scientists uncover an ancient canister in an abandoned church, but when they open it, they inadvertently unleash a strange liquid and an evil force on all of humanity. As the liquid turns their co-workers into zombies, the remaining members realize they have released the most unspeakable horror of them all. Terror mounts as the team must fight to save the world from a devilish fury that has been contained for over seven million years.
Winner: Critics Award - Avoriaz Fantastic Film Festival 1988
