Official synopsis Publisher
When Jim’s big brother Jack is released from prison, the brothers – along with their broken father and Jack’s menacing best friend – decide to charter an ocean fishing boat to celebrate Jack’s new freedom. Once the small crew is far out to sea, however, a mutant species rises from the deep abyssal darkness to terrorize the vessel and its occupants. As the horror of their situation becomes clear, the small group must find a way to fend off the attack and somehow, someway, return to safety; but as the strange parasitic creatures overrun them, they must use more extreme – and deadly – measures to survive.
