PREPRODUCTION |
|
|
On a deserted country road, in the black of night, a tired man (Todd Robinson) is on his way home. At the stroke of midnight, his car dies right next to a cemetery. He gets out and tries his cell phone, which unfortunately for him has no reception.
From somewhere deep within the graveyard, a disturbing sound is growing. So the motorist decides to abandon his car (and the graveyard), and heads off into the night.
But something is stalking him, and it is only a matter of time before he must confront the evil that lurks behind the shadows. |
