Plot

Attorney Mitch Hansen and his fiancée Judy LaRue get into a car wreck that results in Judy being killed. During an autopsy on the seemingly-dead Hansen (which disfigures his face), he wakes up and kills the medical examiners. Ten years later, a group of friends, including Judy's daughter Kiki, have a picnic near the asylum where Hansen was held. A punk band is using the asylum to practice some songs. However, Hansen still inhabits the asylum and plans to go after any perceived intruders.

Reception
