Movie producer Harry Sleerik brings his film crew to Crippen High, which was closed down following a series of grisly, unsolved murders. He intends to make a "horror" film based on these bizarre incidents and for authenticity, he hires several of the school's former employees as actors. The disappearance of the film's leading man sets the stage for a rash of strange events that make it very hard to determine who's playing dead for the camera, and who's not!
