Brutalized and tortured, The Church lead by the enigmatic Caine (Derrel Flynn), leave him and his wife for dead and carry his son Jacob (Jagger Chase) off for some unholy purpose.
Now its many years later and the world has only gotten worse. Cannibalism has spread like wildfire and Scavengers, Mutants and unknown horrors that lurk beneath the sand are now threats of everyday life.
