In Western Honduras, a group of American tourists degenerate into feral madmen before their bus inexplicably bursts into flames. . . A cargo ship is found drifting aimlessly along the Delaware River - without a soul on board. . . It is an unimaginable evil, thousands of years old.

Now, in a small Pennsylvania town with a dark history of its own, it's found what it has been looking for. Don't be scared, Colette, but you've been choosen.
