The Vampire's Coffin

In this chilling tale, a group of graverobbers accidentally unleash a vampire's wrath upon themselves, transforming them into mindless zombies. Now, they must obey the vampire's sinister commands, roaming the streets to hunt down and capture beautiful women for his dark purposes.

In Sierra Negra, two grave robbers steel the coffin of Count Karol de Lavud from the crypt, despite the resistance of María Teresa. They head by car to a hospital, where the greedy Barraza sees a medallion when the coffin is opened and demands more money from his partner, Doctor Mendoza. Meanwhile, at the same hospital, Marta González is working as a nurse with Dr. Enrique Saldívar and still recovering from the events in Sicomorros. When Dr. Mendoza seeks out Dr. Enrique to tell that he has stolen the vampire coffin to study his cells, Barraza returns to the room and remove the wood stake to steal Count Lavud's medallion. The vampire returns to life and begins a crime spree in the city, hunting down Marta to marry her.
