A trip through the Utah badlands turns into a struggle for survival when a pair of siblings returning home to sell their late mother's property are hunted through the desert by a group of sadistic locals. Devin (Tim Draxl) and Regnia (Christine Lakin) were returning to their hometown of Cainville for one last time. Once their business has been accomplished, they will finally be able to let go of the past and move on with their lives. Joining Devin and Regina on their trip are Terra (Katie Maguire), Tom (Justin Hartely), and Samir (Ankhur Bhatt), three friends who have come to the desert to ride their motorcycles while Devon clears up issues of the family estate with Walter (Walter Rodriguez). Later, at a local watering hole, Devin and Regina have a disturbing encounter with resentful Caineville locals Mac (Norman Reedus) and Harley (Noah Fliess), neither of whom are happy to see the siblings back in town. When Regina is attacked by a dog, the injured girl seeks shelter in the cave where she had spent much of her childhood. But there is no safety to be found in this desert, because by returning to Caineville Devin and Regina have awoken some old ghosts that won't rest easy until their ties to the past have been permanently severed. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A young man fears that he may be the architect of his own destruction in this mind-bending thriller from director Allen Wolf. Marcus' (Philip Winchester) terror begins when he inexplicably wakes up half-naked in a cemetery late one night, with no recollection of the events that led up to his arrival there. He learns that he actually suffers from a rare disorder known as parasomnia, which causes him to engage in bizarre behavior during his sleep that he cannot remember the next day. His life takes a rather grisly turn when he wakes up one morning covered in blood, with a knife at his side -- and then learns that his best friend's wife was just stabbed to death. Uncertain if he might have done this himself to cover up a long-buried secret between himself and the victim, or if someone is setting him up as the fall guy in a murder plot, Marcus vows to track his own after-dark activities. Life grows even more bizarre when several strange phone calls roll in, and suggest to Marcus that someone may be watching or following him. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
