Synopsis

Three, young, beautiful girls arrive in Thailand to teach English for the summer, some with noble intentions and others in it for adventure … but none were prepared for the massacre that awaited them. As it begins, the girls find themselves in a nightmare situation when new friends go missing … bloody dreams haunt their sleeps … and a stolen statue leads them down a dark path into Thai folklore and magic that has long been forgotten. But things only get worse, when they realize not WHAT but WHO is haunting them : an 8-year-old girl, brutally murdered and sacrificed by her family decades ago … who wants nothing more than to watch them bleed. This is not a story about redemption, triumph of good vs evil or the will to survive. It’s the story of Vanida – a child sliced open by her family – and now she wants revenge … one appendage at a time.
