To his utter horror, the townspeople appear unbothered by the gruesome sight. As Ed investigates further, he uncovers evidence that alien insects have infiltrated and taken control of his once-idyllic town.

With the danger increasing, he finds himself face-to-face with the authorities - but can they, too, be trusted?

With its unique twists and shocking conclusion, this suspense-filled classic will have you questioning who to trust and what's really lurking in the shadows.
