It's 1978 and acclaimed horror director George A. Romero is gearing up to shoot his zombie cult classic Dawn of the Dead in the Monroeville Mall, just outside Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. On Halloween night, a 12-year-old girl dressed as Olivia Newton-John's character from Grease is slashed to death in a brutal, bloody crime.
