Charlie travels to Florida to attend the funeral of his stepfather's beloved football coach. Almost immediately, he is dragged into a horrific world of danger and death in the surrounding swamps and fields, rampant with supernatural, zombie-like creatures controlled by an evil goddess. The action-packed plot unfolds explosively but lacks clarity; the characterizations, however, are sharp, vivid, and arresting.
