Synopsis

Soldiers arrive in Evans City, Pennsylvania, where they quickly establish martial law and round up and place the populace in the high school. It is revealed that a plane containing a viral bio-weapon, the effects of which drive people insane, went down in the area a few days ago and that the virus has sunken down into the Artesian Wells and infected the town’s water system. Many of the townspeople start to become infected. A group of friends try to escape to freedom as the military close in, but their escape attempt is upset from within as members of the group start to succub to the virus’s effects.
