Synopsis
Sinopsis
When Jules joins her boyfriend on a New Year’s Eve getaway with his old school mates, she’s looking to get some peace and quiet, and make some new friends. But when the holidaymakers stumble across their host’s long-forgotten stash of ancient weed, things quickly take a turn for the nightmarish. By the time they figure out the weed’s strange effect – an insatiable hunger for human flesh – it’s too late, and the four would-be friends become accidental cannibals. Their efforts to cover up their crime trigger a spiral of panic, blame, and even more cannibalism that Jules is determined to survive.
