The world searches for a cure to a disastrous virus. A scientist and park scout venture deep in the forest for a routine equipment run. Through the night, their journey becomes a terrifying voyage through the heart of darkness, the forest coming to life around them.
The film sports a 78% approval rating over on Rotten Tomatoes. The Critics Consensus reads: In the Earth’s bleak kaleidoscope of horror is a hallucinogenic meditation on the residual pandemic fears that haunt humanity.
