A visceral, paranoia-soaked sci-fi horror about an alien invasion disguised as a mundane threat, driven by gore and body-horror rather than psychological depth.

A former astronaut helps a government agent and a police detective track the source of mysterious alien pod spores, filled with lethal flesh-dissolving acid, to a South American coffee plantation controlled by alien pod clones.
