Whilst on a camping weekend a young couple are carjacked by an escaped criminal and his crazed girlfriend. As the foursome head deeper into the wilderness, they are targeted by a blood hungry parasitic creature that absorbs the corpses of its victims. Seeking shelter at an abandoned petrol station the insatiable parasite begins taking over them one by one and with no means of telling who's been infected and who can be trusted, the possibility of escaping alive is increasingly remote.

One of the best ... and freakiest 'monster' effects movies I've seen in a while. Really enjoyed it.

Surprised by this little movie. The acting is alright and the storyline good enough for the duration. Small cast, limited locations and still it's better than some of those big Horror genre budgets. A few weak scenes (The arm amputation for example and mainly the end when the guy is getting cold, you'll understand while watching) Anyway I enjoyed and you might as well if you don't expect the film of the year.

Wow, some great gruesome effects and freaky scenes. I enjoyed this alot. However it does become one of those films where you want to shake some sense into the characters (ok,ok, its just a movie!) But overall a satisfying horror.
