During the opening credits, a news report is heard reporting that eight people have gone missing. We then see these people waking up and singing about the fact they don't know where they are or why they're singing.
Hans, a retired German opera singer later realises who put the chips in their brains and why - but he sings in German so the others don't understand, and the chip overloads his brain during his final long note - forcing him to collapse, dead.
While Brian, a neuro-scientist, tries to conduct an autopsy on Hans, an army of tap-dancing zombies appear and take Hans' corpse away.
Decidedly freaked-out, the remaining hostages resolve to search for gaps in the building and break out.
Being held up by falling in love and other frivolous songs, the group are held up from finding any way out. As they start giving up, Dr. Lloyd Menkin (the evil scientist) appears and introduces himself and the zombies.
The movie ends in a dance-fight between the zombies and hostages, in which the hostages kill off the zombies with dance moves. The hostages then insert the musical chip into the evil Dr. Lloyd-Menkin leaving him in his own musical hell.
