Terror oozes into a small Florida community when soil samples taken for a university study unleash a hideous virus that turns people into self-abusing freaks in this blood-spattered psychological thriller. Returning to town to propose his girlfriend (Tanya Memme), Allen Greenfield (Corey Feldman) finds her -- and the rest of the populace -- acting oddly. But things go from bad to worse after a college professor sees a chance to weaponize the bug.
