When Nightmares Invade the Wilderness
Four childhood friends gather at their hunting cabin in the Maine woods for their annual retreat. Jonesy, Beaver, Henry, and Pete share a bond deeper than ordinary friendship, cemented by their motto "Same Shit, Different Day" (SSDD). But this year feels different. The woods are unnaturally quiet. Animals behave strangely. When they rescue a disoriented hunter named McCarthy wandering through the snow, babbling about lights in the sky, they unknowingly invite disaster into their sanctuary. McCarthy's symptoms are disturbing-pallid skin despite days in freezing temperatures, childlike speech, and a strange red rash spreading across his face. Most alarming is his explosive diarrhea with an otherworldly chemical stench. When McCarthy locks himself in the bathroom, the friends hear horrifying sounds followed by screams. Breaking down the door, they discover a blood-drenched room and McCarthy's corpse with a massive hole torn through his body. Something has burst out of him-something alive that Beaver traps in the toilet. As military helicopters appear overhead announcing a quarantine, the friends realize they're facing an extraterrestrial threat. The creature eventually breaks free, killing Beaver in a grotesque attack. Simultaneously, Jonesy encounters a gray alien whose head explodes into red-orange particles that he involuntarily inhales. In that moment, an entity calling itself "Mr. Gray" takes possession of Jonesy's body, while Jonesy's consciousness retreats to a mental office where he becomes a prisoner in his own mind.
