Story
Johann Faust, resurrected after centuries spent in darkness, returns to Prague, bringing with him a terrifying army of vampires, zombies, and mutants. Driven by a new obsession to settle scores with his past life and family, Faust seeks revenge. His ex-wife Margaret becomes the unlikely heroine, determined to stop him. Meanwhile, the enigmatic figure of Mephistopheles pulls the strings from afar like a puppeteer.
Summary

Kotleta and K. Sněgoňová. The story combines elements of classic horror and fantasy with a bloody cocktail of action and suspense. Despite its fantastical premise, the film explores themes of revenge, obsession, and redemption through its complex protagonist, Johann Faust.
