Two brothers (Ezequiel Rodriguez and Damian Salomon) discover a hacked up body in the woods after hearing gunshots. The dead man is called a “cleaner,” and was heading to a neighbor’s house, where they are harboring a “Rotten” … a human, in this case the son in his mother’s house, who is carrying an unborn demon awaiting birth. They decide to take the Rotten far away from the area, but the body escapes and what was feared is now happening … the evil is released upon the land.
