Dr. Knox works at the local medical academy and needs an ongoing supply of fresh cadavers for use by his students. In this horror thriller, he hires grave robbers Glynn Edwards and Derren Nesbitt to plunder the nearby cemeteries to keep him supplied with a new crop of freshly interred bodies weekly. But when there are no more bodies to dig up at the local memorial parks, Edwards and Nesbitt continue to fulfill their contract with Dr. Knox by going after the living.
