Zombie Prom is set in the Nuclear 1950s at Enrico Fermi High, where sweet and proper Toffee falls for class bad boy Jonny. When family pressure forces an end to the romance, Jonny jumps on his motorcycle and speeds to the local power plant where he throws himself into the nuclear waste dump. Although buried at sea in a metal casket, Toffee's undying love penetrates all barriers and rejuvenates Jonny who returns to EFHS as a green-faced, toxic zombie bent on graduating with his class and taking his dream girl Toffee to the prom. Tyrannical principal Delilah Strict has different ideas and bars the goo-covered, cadaverous teen from rejoining his class. The school's discrimination policy prompts sensationalist journalist Eddie Flagrante to expose the school's intolerance, bringing him face to face with the intractable Miss Strict. When principal and reporter realize their shared past, true to his name, Flagrante rekindles the flame which softens the inflexible Strict.
