“Since the death of his pregnant wife in an earthquake in Haiti 12 years ago, Victor Fielding has raised his daughter Angela alone,” reads the film’s synopsis. “But when Angela and her friend Katherine (newcomer Olivia Marcum) disappear into the woods and return three days later with no memory of what happened to them, it sets in motion a chain of events that forces Victor to face the depths of evil and, in his fear and desperation, seek out the only person alive who has seen anything like it: Chris MacNeil.”
