Two married small-time thugs, Tony & Sue, set out on what should have been a simple job: transport five kidnapped strangers to a mysterious destination. But nothing about this ride is simple.

Six troubled friends venture deep into the woods for what was meant to be a nostalgic camping-trip reunion—but old wounds resurface fast. Secrets spill, betrayals ignite, and the uneasy tension between them is only matched by the unsettling presence lurking in the darkness. As the night unravels into fear, suspicion, and chaos, one thing becomes clear: this is a reunion none of them will ever forget.

When the formidable Edmund Cornelius Benedict Bartholomew Braxton III dies, he leaves behind more than just a thriving business empire—he leaves a legacy full of secrets. His presumed only child discovers they may not be the sole heir after all. As the wake spirals into uproar and unexpected relatives crawl out of the woodwork, tensions rise, loyalties fracture, and the question looms: who will inherit the Braxton family legacy?

WHERE THERE’S A WILL, THERE’S A WAY!
