Shadow: Dead Riot 2006

Twenty years ago, the infamous serial killer known as Shadow met his end at Ellis Glen penitentiary, sentenced for a series of gruesome crimes that had terrorized the local community. Just as the execution was set to occur, chaos erupted within the prison, igniting a brutal riot that left a lasting stain on the institution’s already grim history. In a desperate attempt to restore order, the authorities resorted to extreme measures, burying the deceased inmates in the prison grounds and shrouding the entire incident in secrecy.

Now, in present times, we meet Solitaire, a young woman burdened by her troubled past, incarcerated at the newly named Ellis Glen Rehabilitation Center. Charged with offenses such as street fighting and other transgressions, she finds herself among the most hardened criminals in the facility. Unfortunately, her tumultuous circumstances are compounded by the animosity she faces from other inmates, forcing her to fight for her survival in this menacing environment. The only flicker of compassion she encounters comes from Emily, her pregnant cellmate, who offers a rare moment of solace amidst the rampant hostility.

Solitaire’s plight takes a chilling turn when she is sent to solitary confinement, a place where she unwittingly encounters the vengeful spirit of Shadow. His dark energy has lingered in the prison since his tragic demise, and their fates are intertwined; years prior, a young Solitaire narrowly avoided becoming the center of one of Shadow’s satanic rituals, marking the beginning of their ominous connection.

As Shadow’s spirit grows aware that Solitaire, the girl who escaped his grasp, is now trapped within the walls of the prison he once haunted, he devises a nefarious plan. Harnessing the malevolent energy accumulated from those killed in the riot two decades ago, Shadow resurrects an army of undead zombies to unleash havoc upon the prison. Their goal is clear: a rampage to claim Solitaire as his own twisted prize, dragging her into a nightmare from which there may be no escape.
