The story
On July 3, 1984, at the Uneeda Medical Supply Warehouse in Louisville, Kentucky, foreman Frank Johnson tries to impress new employee Freddy Hanscom by showing him military drums of a toxic gas called Trioxin.
Joined by their boss Burt Wilson, the three try, to no avail, to kill the reanimated corpse by puncturing the brain, then dismembering the body.
A thunderstorm returns the chemical to earth as toxic rain, reanimating the corpses in the nearby cemetery.
