| Summary |
Dario Heyward never wants to go back to Moldavia Studios, the iconic castle that served as the set, studio, and home to the cast and crew of dozens of cult classic B-horror movies. It's been three years since Dario has even seen the place, after getting legally emancipated from his father, the infamous director of Moldavia's creature features. But then Dario's estranged brother invites him home to a mysterious ceremony involving his father and a tribute to his first film: The Curse of the Mummy's Tongue. Dario swears his homecoming will be a onetime visit -- a way for him to get closure on his past and reunite with Hayley, his first love and the costar of Zombie Children of the Harvest Sun, a Moldavia production fraught with real-life tragedy. Dario gets sucked back into the twisted world of Moldavia and the horrors, both real and imagined, that have haunted him his entire life. With only months to rescue the sinking studio, and everyone who has built their lives there, Dario must confront the demons of his past -- and the uncertainties of his future. |
