Horror writer Edmund Blackstone sees his recurring nightmare come to chilling life one weekend as one by one, his friends and family are killed by three villains: the Queen of Evil, a dwarf named Spider, and a giant scar-faced strongman called Jackal. ==Cast==

Seizure is the directorial debut of Oliver Stone, who also co-wrote the screenplay. Star Mary Woronov would later claim that gangster Michael Thevis was one of the film's producers. He apparently partially bankrolled the film in an attempt to launder money, as he was under investigation by the FBI. ==Release==
