A young man is being tormented by hellish nightmares that are becoming so bad that one makes him wake up to find his bed on fire - the same bed that was burning in his dream. Haunted by these terrifying visions of a prison-like fortress, he is not only fearing his sanity, but for his life as well. Convinced that a tortured spirit is communicating with him, a dream specialist persuades him and his friends to visit Alcatraz to confront the sadistic ghost. Once there, they are attacked one by one by the evil spirit. With the help of a dead rock star, they must destroy the demon or be forever doomed to seclusion on the island with it. Shot on location at the actual Alcatraz Island prison, this strange horror film combines elements of Nightmare on Elm Street with the Evill Dead. The totally twisted plot, grotesque humor, a quirky soundtrack by Devo make it bizarrely unique. (official distributor synopsis)
