description

A young couple travels to a shabby Eastern European hospital for cheap plastic surgery. The woman wants a breast reduction, and her mother comes along for yet another facelift. Wandering through an abandoned ward the boyfriend stumbles upon a young woman who is gagged and strapped to an operating table. It appears that she's at the clinic to undergo an experimental rejuvenation treatment. When the boyfriend frees her he unknowingly causes the outbreak of a virus that will change doctors, patients and his soon-to-be mother-in-law into bloodthirsty zombies.

Taking grotesque body horror to a whole new gross-out comedic level, YUMMY – Belgian's first zombie feature film – is an orgy of blood, violence and fun.
