SYNOPSIS:
In 1983, Jacob Allen Shepherd, violently took the lives of his entire family in a secluded cabin while performing an occult ritual. After the brutal slaying of his wife and children, he ends his own life, believing the ritual will grant him dark, supernatural powers.
The horrific incident sends shock-waves through the nation, igniting a morbid fascination that leads to the birth of a dangerous cult known as “The Flock.”
Now, over forty years later, a couple unknowingly rents the same cabin for a weekend getaway, unaware that their visit coincides with the anniversary of the tragic events. Soon, they will realize that the followers of Jacob Allen Shepherd have returned to complete the ritual, setting their sights on the couple as their next intended sacrifice.
