Plot:
A couple of cars are going to drag race. Car of guys versus their girlfriends. We get Hot Rod Girl car action as they go over a country road under
construction, on to a rickety bridge. The girls’ car runs off the bridge into the river as the credits roll.
People are searching, dragging the river. The police get a statement from the guys in the race. With the river being extremely sandy and muddy, doubt they’ll
ever find the car. They see Mary climb out of the river. She is taken back to town but doesn’t remember anything after the crash.
They're coming to get you Barbara, I mean Mary.
Later, she returns to the bridge and gets back in her car. We cut to her playing an organ. Mary is going to go to Utah to play the organ at a church. It is just a
job to her, will help her become a musician. She isn’t plan on coming back.
Mary leaves town by going over the bridge. On the road, late at night she sees her reflection in the window, then Creepy Guy’s reflection. Mary is disturbed
by this. Later, she sees another creepy reflection but keeps on driving.
She is shown her room and begins unpacking. Mary spots Creepy Guy’s reflection in another window.
Minister shows Mary the organ. Get your minds out of the collective gutter. She is awfully short, not wanting to have a reception to meet the church-goers. She
tests the organ. Minister is impressed with her organ tickling abilities.
Creepy Guy is about. Mary goes with Minister on a drive. She seems to be drawn to an abandoned pavilion slash carnival. It isn’t safe. No trespassing. Creepy
Guy is in the pavilion.
Mary returns to the boarding house. Taking a bath, she is interrupted by Rico Suavay guy, John Lyndon. He tries peeking at her and inviting her to dinner. Mary
isn’t interested. She goes to the stairs and spots Creepy Guy on the first floor. Mary rushes back to her room. Someone is coming. It’s the landlady. When Mary
asks about the Creepy Guy, she is told just them and John. Landlady thinks Mary is a taco shy of a combination platter.
Later that night, a thunderstorm rages. Mary awakens the next morning to Greasy Suavay at the door bringing coffee. Mary seems talkative for a change. We
learn that Greasy works at a warehouse. She flirts with him some.
In a department store, she is shopping. When trying a something in the dressing room, the door is stuck. Mary eventually gets out and tries talking with the clerk
who ignores her. Everyone ignores her. It doesn’t take long for her to realize something is wrong. Running into a nearby park, Mary is being chased by Creepy Guy
but not him.
An older guy, Dr. Samuels, a psychiatrist, volunteers to help her. Mary explains how she was ignored. Dr. Samuels thinks the car wreck is the cause of her
misinterpreting things. That is why Mary doesn’t feel like wanting to join in with other people. Somehow, the pavilion figures into it. Mary decides to go it. She
wanders about a dark building, a dance hall.
Every breath you take, I'll be watching you...
Back at the boarding house, Mary meets Greasy Suavay. He is shot down in a blaze of glory, no, in a blaze of patheticness. Mary agrees so the loser will leave
her alone. But, she has organ practice first.
Mary is playing in a trance, scared. At the pavilion, Creepy Guy arises from a watery grave followed by more. They dance in the pavilion. Creepy Guy
approaches Mary when the minister chews her out for playing inappropriate music. The church organ version of “In the Garden of Eden” by I. Ron Butterfly on
the Simpsons was more inappropriate than Mary’s piece. The minister accuses her of having no soul. Mary is in a trance. She is fired. But, the minister
offers to help her. Mary leaves as Greasy Suavay is outside waiting for her.
They go to a little bar, with Mary in her own little world. Greasy is downing the brews, well anything that is fermented. He complains how she is such a cold
fish. Mary hasn’t mentioned just being fired. But, she wants to be with Suavay tonight. They go back to the boardinghouse.
Stumbling drunken charm ensues. Suavay tries kissing her. Mary isn’t interested. Creepy Guy is nuzzling her, Mary screams. Greasy Suavay may be desperate
for female companionship but, Mary is far too much damaged goods for even him. HE leaves. Mary barricades herself in the room.
The next morning, Mary is packing almost in a trance. She stops at a garage to get her car repaired. Waiting in the car as it is checked out. Mary locks the doors
and is very jumpy. Creepy Guy is approaching her, lowers the car off the rack. Mary runs off to the nearby bus station. No one hears her. She goes to a bus filled
with creepy looking people. She runs from them.
Wandering about the city, no one can hear her. Mary runs into the park, starts hearing birds. She decides to pay another visit to Dr. Samuels. Creepy Guy is in
the chair. Mary screams awakening from a nightmare in the garage, drives away.
Mary drives to the pavilion, to the dance hall. From the watery graves, they arise. The dead start dancing like a Zombie Prom. Creepy Guy is dancing with
Creepy Mary while Mary watches this. Creepy Mary dies. The Zombies chase after her. She can’t escape them.
Later, the townsfolk and minister follow Mary’s footprints which stop in the middle of nowhere, without any others around her.
At the bridge, the car is pulled out of the river with all the girls including Mary inside of it…
