The concluding installment of the popular
horror series brings back the principal heroes
Reggie,
Mike, and
Jody (
Reggie Bannister,
Michael Baldwin, and
Bill Thornbury) for their final battle against the evil
Tall Man (
Angus Scrimm).
Mike is trying to escape the
Tall Man's designs on turning him into a servant of the interdimensional body thieves, while
Reggie is trying not to get involved, despite
Jody's pleas for help. When a demonic cop with a skinned man in his trunk pulls
Reggie over along a dark highway, and spits
Reggie's mouth full of yellow slime when shot, it becomes clear that he will have to play too. After crashing his hearse in Death Valley,
Mike dreams about the days of the Civil War, where he meets
Jebediah Morningside (
Scrimm), the
Tall Man's pleasant former self. By the time he returns to the earthly plane, the dimensional forks introduced in previous installments have multiplied into over a dozen. While
Reggie is occupied by a pretty undead blonde who ends up having two of the
Tall Man's silver Death Balls for breasts,
Jody turns out to not be quite dead either, being able to change his own body into the Death Balls at will. As the forks continue to multiply,
Mike constructs his own Death Ball and skips through various dimensions with
Jody looking for the
Tall Man. Eventually, the brothers slip into the past to the night when
Morningside turned evil in an attempt to stop the
horror before it could begin. Needless to say, everything comes back to the cemetery for the chilling final battle, but it doesn't stay there for long.
