Hollywood in the 1950s is stuck in the nostalgia of its brilliant past, with little thought for the future. Our Hero, naïve and bright-eyed, is a scriptwriter, movie buff and star-worshipper who longs to relive the Golden Age of Film. One cold Halloween, he gets his chance when he receives an anonymous note inviting him into the Green Glades Cemetery where he is promised a great revelation. There he finds a body frozen in time, poised to climb from the city of the dead to the city of light.
