ActionHorrorScience FictionThrillerComedy

Detective Roger Mortis is killed in action while investigating a string of mysterious robberies: until he's brought back from the dead with a chemical company's secret re-animation technology. Now he has 12 hours to solve the case of his own death before he dies: And stays dead.

VIBE

A wild, neon-drenched ride where buddy cops battle the undead. It's a frantic, darkly funny, and surprisingly gory romp through 80s action tropes with a sci-fi zombie twist. Pure, unadulterated, over-the-top fun.
