Reseña del editor:

GHOUL CITY is an original screenplay by Michael B. Druxman. The first thing that Greg Hemmings did when he arrived in the quiet, Midwestern manufacturing town of Silo City was to shoot down the neighborhood grocer and his wife. He followed that by blowing away a farmer and his son, a deputy sheriff, plus several other of the townsfolk. When Sheriff Abel McIntire finally captured Greg and threw him into jail, the former high school science teacher from Canada told him that Silo City was a town of flesh-eating ghouls and that it was his intention to wipe out every one of them. Naturally, the peace officer scoffed at that allegation, but then, maybe there was something he knew that he wasn’t about to tell. After all, there’s really no such thing as a ghoul, is there?
