[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

A writer finds that a television has been delivered to his house without him ever ordering one. Not about to look a gift horse in the mouth, the writer accepts the television, only to find that it does not work properly and continuously plays a videotape of a gory zombie movie called "Zombie Bloody Nightmare."

The video is demonic, and opens a portal that spews out hordes of flesh-hungry zombies who proceed to make short work of the writer. Later, a new family moves into the writer's house. With the parents having not yet arrived, the teenage children find the television and decide to watch the video, releasing the zombies into the real world again.

The fortunate arrival of a Texas cowboy and the use of a chainsaw enable them to survive the encounter and send the zombies back into the video world.

Spoilers end here.
