Run time: 90 min.
In the vein of classic creature features, a young couple held hostage by an ex-convict on the run is besieged in an isolated gas station by an insatiable parasite that absorbs the corpses of its victims. The creature grows more horrifying with each murder, until the claustrophobia becomes unbearable for the three trapped protagonists, forcing a showdown with the monster. This fantastic feature from former AFF audience award winner Toby Wilkins (Kidney Thieves, AFF 2006) is a thrilling re-invention of classic horror tropes.
