Plot
Various kinds of travelers are waiting for the last bus in a remote area surrounded by thick forests. They count themselves lucky when the bus does arrive. All are desperate for various reasons to get back to civilization. When the bus is forced to take a less travelled road, half the passengers decide to return rather than continue the journey. Those who do continue find themselves locked up in an abandoned house in the middle of the forest. As they attempt to get themselves out, strange things begin to happen. If it is the evil spirit in the house or their minds playing strange games, is left to audience's imagination. Meanwhile, there is a twist in the tale as another group of a television crew are under the impression that they are handling the first group.
