If you had the power to bring a loved one back to life, would you?

When an army doctor’s wife unexpectedly dies, the doctor experiments on the bodies of deceased soldiers in an attempt to bring her back. He is successful in bringing the soldiers back to life, but the army has found out and the doctor (with his daughter) flees into hiding… before he can bring his wife back to life.

Ten years later, the doctor has moved to a small town and runs a bar. Across the street is a convenience store owned by a single mother. The mother’s son died as a soldier, but his body was never returned. Every day she prays for his return.

Finally, on October 30 (Devil’s Night), a mysterious drifter appears. The doctor believes he may be one of the soldiers he experimented on. The mother believes this could be her son who never returned home. And the sheriff believes the drifter is nothing more than a monster, and wants him out of his town, dead or alive.

Sometimes to appreciate life, you have to experience death.
