A dark, paranoia-soaked horror-thriller about a mother and son fleeing one nightmare only to encounter vengeful supernatural forces and visceral animal terror in an isolated setting.

After fleeing his psychotic father, a young teen and his mom seek refuge in a remote farmhouse, only to face a pack of ferocious dogs and the sinister spirits that haunt the property.
