Overconfident hero Jeff falls victim to its blood-lust while he diverts it so the rest can make it to the only cabin home in the woods. There they are welcomed by Carl, his wife Vicky and grumpy Douglas, three adults who got stuck their 'under monster siege' and duly doubt the use of Sean's efforts to call for help before his cellphone battery died. While anxiously fighting off the monster's attacks on weak points in the cabin, disagreement on what to do gets ever more bitter.
