Das Nazi Virus has broken loose. The elite squad from the 2019 HÕFF trash hit "Reich of the Dead" sent to eradicate the virus has failed. In the headquarters, the survivors are being interrogated and prosecuted. Chaos and paranoia reign, boundaries between reality and delusions have been blurred. Meanwhile, the nazi zombies have seized an old seaside fortress where they are conducting experiments to create new zombie soldiers. Another team of soldiers is being sent to take back the fortress and save the day. But time is running out...
