Finney Durant, Nick Laymon, and Reed Tucker are desperate not to be linked to the crime. Finney and Tucker insist on hiding the corpse, and Nick, hard up for money, takes the man's cash. But the hit-and-run is just the beginning of their problems once they use a key found in the victim's pocket to open a bus locker-and find a videotape that opens an ever-widening doorway into horror.
