На необитаемом острове, куда их забрасывают, в мире непроходимых лесов, смертельно опасных рек и крутых берегов, они становятся жертвами некоего охотника, который готов преподать им кровавый урок. Группа понимает, что вдали от цивилизации им не от кого ждать помощи. Безжалостный хищник и его свирепая свора собак постоянно дают о себе знать.
