A B-movie horror-comedy about an alien infection spreading through a hospital, blending body-horror premise with absurdist humor around sugar-seeking infected people.

After a car crash, Tammy and injured basketball players are hospitalized. When a nurse kisses dying Tammy, an alien infection spreads through the hospital staff and patients. The facility is quarantined as infected people seek sugar.
