Plot Overview

Uninformed of the horrors that await them, they come across a young kid called Martin Bristol (Erik Fones), who they find has actually been abducted by a callous serial killer. Martin is not able to feel pain due to a rare congenital disease, making him an ideal victim for the killer's ruthless criminal activities.

As Julian and Marylin attempt to uncover the fact behind Martin's mystical condition, the movie delves into more scary scenarios. The serial killer who prowls in the shadows of the factory ends up being Sutter (Richard Glover), a psychopath who has been grooming Martin as his follower by forcing him to enjoy his vicious killings.

From here, the motion picture spirals into a chilling survival video game, where the bank burglars need to protect themselves and Martin from Sutter's cold-blooded murders. Their original strategy of committing a criminal offense develops into a difficult mission for survival.
