Два года минуло с тех пор, как исчадия ада атаковали обыкновенную среднюю школу, явившись на зов директора-маньяка. Храбрые подростки сражались до победного конца, и многие погибли в неравной схватке. Выжившие предпочли забыть о случившемся кошмаре и поступили в университет. Но страшная месть не за горами. В результате эксперимента с загадочными черными растениями, появившимися на территории студенческого кампуса, было обнаружено вещество, вызывающее яркие видения.
