A criminal scientist executed in the electric chair is brought back to life by a colleague, but to move forward, he needs to continue with human blood transfusions. In the end, a journalist, who investigates the disappearance of the victims of the "monster", will manage to stop him before he kills his young assistant as well. Curious mix of zombism and vampirism.
