Women At Isolated Cabin Are Stalked By Mysterious Hermit
SCENE OPENS on a close-up of a leaf, crisp and perfect. We slowly pan up to reveal a slightly disheveled looking man (Michael Vegas), his back turned to us. He holds a rabbit, which he has clearly just caught. He looks around, scanning the area. The woods are utterly silent. As he looks around, a gust of wind moves the trees. Satisfied that his scan has yielded nothing, he walks away.
We follow him as he walks through the woods, finally arriving at a makeshift camp. Tarps are strung over poles in a haphazardly manner. An old fire lingers in front.
As he begins to prepare the rabbit, he is suddenly roused when he senses something. Following his senses, he walks back through the woods until he comes upon a nearby cabin.
Hidden in the brush, he watches as a car pulls up and two women get out, Luna (Emily Willis) and Gwen (Emma Hix). They are here for a weekend getaway that Luna booked. Gwen is nervous because she's not used to the isolation of the country.
As they are about to enter the house, Gwen seems to sense something. She turns around and looks back at the woods. The trees blow in the wind, but she sees nothing.
CUT TO TITLE
A short time later, the girls are sunning themselves on the dock. They chat about their new friendship, discussing the fact that Gwen has recently gotten out of a relationship. Luna planned the weekend away as a destresser for Gwen.
The girls apply suntan lotion to each other, their hands rubbing their glistening bodies as the man watches, unbeknownst to them.
Later that night, the girls watch a movie as the man peers in from outside through a window. Soon, the weather turns stormy and the power goes out. As lightning periodically illuminates the darkened cabin, Luna reveals that she is sensing a subtle romantic vibe from Gwen. After some initial reluctance from Gwen, since she has never been with a woman before, they share a tender moment and kiss.
They have sex, with Luna patiently leading the shy and inexperienced Gwen through her first lesbian experience. As they fuck, lightning continues to flash.
Midway through the sex, the girls are lost in each other, both of their eyes closed. Lightning flashes. In that split second, we see that the man stands directly over them. The room is then plunged back into darkness.
The man has something special planned for the girls, but not everything is as it seems..
