When a tanker carrying a nightmarish cargo is misdirected under the darkness of the midnight sky, a terrifying creature is unleashed on the east coast of America as average citizens fall prey to a bloodthirsty beast. Captured by hunters and locked securely in the hull of a massive tanker, a descendent of the Lyncanthrope family faces an uncertain fate.

Before long, the entire countryside is crawling with steel-clawed beasts that hunger for human flesh.
