In this revenge horror thriller, a blooming relationship reignites a lifetime rivalry between two women who have been pitted against each other since the day they met by class, culture, and gender expectations. Now as they are forced to meet again, they find themselves stalked by a violent Beast that means to destroy everything. Can they come to an understanding in time and team up to fight or will they fall prey to the Beast?
