A troubled fifteen year old boy, Andrew, is sent to an old farmhouse by his father, in hopes to whip him into shape with some hard labor. When Andrew shows up to old-man Galen's farm, he quickly realizes not everything is quite as it seems. Galen claims there is a beast that lurks the surrounding woods, and that Andrew's 'hard work' is preparation to slay this supposed 'beast'. With news reports of missing campers and the body count on the rise, is Galen just a crazy old man? Or is something really lurking the woods?
