The film follows Rudy, a 17-year-old gas station attendant working the graveyard shift at a remote station. His quiet night is shattered when two escaped convicts, Hank and Lee, arrive seeking medical help. Rudy tries to assist them, but an eerie, malevolent presence begins to encroach, lurking just beyond the station's flickering lights. When Hank ventures outside to investigate a distant scream, an unseen force violently drags him into the darkness. Terrified, Rudy calls the police, unaware that the voice on the other end is not what it seems. As he waits for help, Rudy remains oblivious that he is being manipulated by the entity that took Hank. The tension builds as Rudy, still believing in the promise of rescue, steps outside and meets the same horrifying fate. Inside, Lee lies unconscious, his eyes now blackened-a haunting testament to the malevolent force that has claimed them all, leaving Rudy tragically unaware of the truth until the very end.
