This film begins with a farmer being awakened in the dead of night and upon going outside to check it out is subsequently attacked and killed by one of his farm animals. The scene then shifts to a man named "Martin" (David Ryan) and his female companion "Helena" (Marian Araujo) driving on a road in the Irish countryside when suddenly a man appears right in front of him. Unable to stop, the car slams into the man and kills him immediately. Naturally, being quite upset and not knowing what else to do, both Martin and Helena pick up dead man and put him in the back seat so that they can deliver him to the nearest hospital. Unfortunately, they don't go very far when the man suddenly attacks Martin and while doing so bites him in the neck. Although Martin manages to fend off the attack and eventually kill his attacker, he quickly becomes quite fatigued which causes Helena to walk to a nearby cottage to ask for help. Not long afterward, however, she is viciously attacked by Martin and, even though she manages to escape unharmed, she soon comes to the realization that something terrible has happened and it will take all of her resources to simply survive the night. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this film started off really well and I thought it might turn out to be better than I initially expected. However, my hopes were soon dashed as the film became less and less interesting due to the fact that each scene was so similar to the one before it. It was extremely one-dimensional. Throw in an awful ending and I have no other option than to rate this film accordingly. Below average.
