Before Dawn is an over-the-top horror / black comedy tale revolving around a small group of teenagers trapped inside an old mansion where a gateway to Hell has been opened. If that wasn’t bad enough, the living dead have risen from the nearby family cemetery and are slowly making their way to the mansion. Before Dawn is a love letter to both zombie movies and 80s horror flicks. Influences range from such horror classics as John Carpenter's The Thing to Evil Dead to DeadAlive.
