American psychologist John Holden arrives in London to participate in a symposium aiming to expose witchcraft and devil-worship as a fraud, with attention centered on a cult run by a Julian Karswell. Debarking his plane, Holden learns that the symposium leader, Henry Harrington, has suddenly died and he is now in charge. What only the audience knows is that Harrington was clearly killed by a demon, apparently summoned by Karswell to avenge his persecution. Despite both threatening and cajoling behavior by Karswell, Holden determines to proceed, though the only cult member willing to talk about his experiences is in a prison psychiatric ward, catatonic after allegedly killing yet another cult member. However, Harrington's niece, Joanna, believes, based on her uncle's notes, that Karswell may indeed have some satanic powers derived from an ancient tome in an obscure language which he has been able to translate, and attempts to warn the skeptic Holden. Karswell's mother also attempts to warn Holden off. However, the thing which begins to most get to Holden are the occasional, but mounting, sensory and mental disturbances he begins experiencing after an encounter with Karswell, and the discovery that, during this encounter, Karswell secretly slipped a slip of parchment with a curse in runic symbols on it into Holden's belongings, a parchment identical to one Harrington recorded having had passed to him in a similar manner shortly before his death... [N.B. Holden at no point stays at the Karswell estate].。1986年,西雅图,万圣节之夜。臭名昭著的连环杀手本尼,长期以来被认为已被控制,从戒备森严的精神病院逃脱,重生于一个扭曲的稻草人面具之下。随着他在郊区留下一连串的杀戮痕迹,关于他可怕过去的传闻再次浮出水面,在这座霓虹闪烁、恐惧弥漫的城市中引发恐慌。但本尼杀戮并非仅仅为了乐趣——他在追捕某人。一位年轻女子不知不觉地与他疯狂生涯中最黑暗的篇章联系在一起,成为了他的目标,他越接近,血腥程度就越大。《死亡:重装上阵》是一部充满80年代怀旧气息的残酷杀戮游戏,充斥着合成器音效,本尼将通过一具具尸体在恐怖片史上留下自己的一席之地。。
