Plot Summary

When the American Chicken Bunker, a military-themed fried-chicken chain, builds a restaurant on the site of an ancient Indian burial ground, local protesters aren't the only ones crying fowl! The previous tenants, fueled by a supernatural force, take "possession" of the food and those who eat it, and the survivors discover that they must band together before they themselves become the other white meat! Film lovers have been starved for sustenance. The relentless diet of predictability and pretense Hollywood has been serving up just doesn't cut it. Poultrygeist is hearty food for thought. In Poultrygeist, Troma takes on the the fast-food industry-skewering the soulless restaurateurs-in the world's first horror-comedy film to feature zombie chickens, American Indians and a bit of singing and dancing! It's Poultrygeist! Written by Troma Entertainment

Trivia The film made national headlines in 2011 when a man named Sidney Klawitter purchased what he thought was a DVD cleaner, but turned out to be a copy of the movie. Klawitter called the film horrifying and a XXX film. The store owner stated that the device was prepackaged and purchased from a company based in Oakland, CA. No charges were ever filed in the case.
