Some young people kill a drug dealer and throw his corpse into the waters of a lake, which are already contaminated with radioactive material; the criminal then comes back to life and begins to pursue them, the boys, to defend themselves, throw into the small lake the corpse of a deceased friend so that, once resurrected as well, he can help them eliminate the "revived" criminal. As is easily guessed from the plot, this film is a no-frills horror, made to please a very young audience, who however I don't think will appreciate the result. Poor-quality home video product, not recommended.
