In 1989, Lisa Swallows is a desolate teen young lady actually battling to grapple with the deficiency of her mom, who was killed by a hatchet killer two years sooner. Lisa's dad, Dale, remarries a repulsive and self-centered lady named Janet. From the remarriage, Lisa acquires a famous, lively stepsister, Taffy. Lisa invests a lot of her energy in the nearby Lone ranger's Forest Graveyard, no doubt stirring up a lot of mortification for her loved ones.
After a sad tanning bed electric shock, Lisa heads to a party with Taffy. She is then coincidentally tranquilized and almost physically attacked by a schoolmate, Doug. Lisa, perplexed and upset, gets back to the burial ground and addresses the grave of a youthful Victorian man who kicked the bucket in 1837, communicating her longing to accompany him. The young fellow had been a performer who had experienced passionate feelings for a lady time permitting, before she had left him for another man. He was not long after struck by lightning and killed, passing on him to be covered in the single guy's graveyard. An electrical discharge lightning strikes the grave after Lisa leaves, and the young fellow (alluded to as "the Animal" in the film's credits) is resurrected as an infatuated zombie.
Janet criticizes Lisa for breaking a mirror earlier. While Lisa is home alone, the Animal breaks into the house. Regardless of at first being alarmed, Lisa acknowledges he is the young fellow whose grave she idolizes, and chooses to conceal the Animal in her room storeroom. The Animal is quiet, missing various body parts, and canvassed in soil and flotsam and jetsam, all credits he is profoundly embarrassed about.
After the break-in, Lisa claims that a criminal broke in to make sense of the wreck made by the Animal, yet Janet claims she is making it up for consideration and to disturb Dale, demanding that Lisa is all things considered "insane" or "discourteous". After The Animal leaves a worm in Janet's food, she reprimands Lisa and takes steps to send her to a refuge. The Animal kills Janet, removing her left ear, which Lisa sews onto his head. Earlier, both dump Janet's body into the burial ground. Lisa sorts out that, utilizing electric shock, body parts can become one with him. She then, at that point, utilizes Taffy's tanning bed to place in his ear. Lisa later draws Doug to the burial ground so the Animal can remove Doug's right hand. Doug, frightened, attempts to take off, yet the Animal kills him and conceals his body with Janet's. With these new connections, the Animal beginnings seeming to be his old self, and he and Lisa begin to bond further.
The police begin to explore Janet's and Doug's vanishings. Taffy pouts over her vanishing while Lisa is unflinching. Lisa barely abstains from being involved prior to going to the home of her crush, Michael, setting out to lose her virginity to him. She tracks down him in bed with Taffy, notwithstanding the last option monitoring Lisa's advantage in him, and is crushed. The Animal then enters, slashing off Michael's crotch, making him drain to death. He gets ready to go after Taffy, yet Lisa mediates. He then drives to the graveyard, and Lisa, with a damaged Taffy close behind, follows him. Before Lisa pursues the Animal to kill him, she gives Taffy her late mother's rosary as a token for her graciousness and compassion.
Lisa defies the Animal, who concedes he cherishes her. They leave the burial ground in the wake of tossing a cop into an open grave. Lisa joins Michael's crotch to the Animal so they can have intercourse. With the police focusing in on Lisa, and presently completely embracing demise, she persuades the Animal to shock her in the tanning bed. The Animal turns on the tanning bed's most elevated setting, making Lisa consume to death.
