Breck Eisner directs this remake of George A. Romero's 1973 horror classic. The small Iowa town of Ogden Marsh epitomises the American Dream: a picture-perfect community of happy, law-abiding citizens. But after a series of horrific incidents it becomes apparent to Sheriff David Dutton that something is infecting the citizens of Ogden Marsh with psychopathic insanity, and an ordinary night turns into a fight for survival for four young friends as they struggle desperately to get out of town alive.
