The premise

The new manager of a small-town cemetery becomes convinced that he triggered the untimely deaths of several plot owners by tampering with a certain map. When nobody believes him, he risks his sanity to play God once again and prove his point.

Horror Vault's take

When a reluctant small-town businessman takes charge of the local cemetery, a chilling pattern emerges: every plot he marks on the graveyard's map seems to herald a real death. As coincidences stack up into something far more sinister, his grip on reason begins to slip and those around him start to doubt his sanity. This lean, black-and-white thriller builds its dread not through monsters or gore but through one man's mounting terror at the possibility that he holds the power of life and death in his own hands.
