A teen horror thriller built on the urban legend premise of a dangerous shortcut and a mysterious predator, driven by suspense and paranoia rather than deep reflection.

When Derek moves to a new town and discovers a shortcut through the woods to his high school, he learns about a crazy old man who lives near its path: Legend has it that he abducted a group of teenagers years ago. Ignoring the warning, Derek and his friends set out to uncover the dark secret that's buried deep in the woods. But will they survive to tell it?
