A tense thriller about a father and daughter trapped in a dangerous small town where a teenage girl becomes the focus of two boys—one potentially a serial killer—creating paranoid uncertainty and moral danger.

Charlie Cox should have stopped for gas in California. While he's on a cross-country trip with his teenage daughter, Joleen, his car hits empty in a creepy town in Nevada. With nary a drop of fuel to be found, Charlie and Joleen stop for the night at a dilapidated trailer park. There, Joleen catches the eye of two teenage boys, Jimmy and Pinky -- either of whom could be the serial killer currently terrorizing the town.
