A dark, surreal descent into Haiti's supernatural underworld where a skeptical scientist confronts the terrifying reality of zombification and ancient voodoo magic.

A Harvard anthropologist is sent to Haiti to retrieve a strange powder that is said to have the power to bring human beings back from the dead.

Based on the true life experiences of Wade Davis and filmed on location in Haiti, it's a frightening excursion into black magic and the supernatural.
