A horror film series focusing on a tribe of feral cannibals living in the forests and caves surrounding the small coastal town of Dead River, Maine. Based on characters created by Jack Ketchum in his novels "Off Season" (1980), "Offspring" (1991) and "The Woman" (2010, co-authored with Lucky McKee, director of the film version), and his short story "Winter Child" (1998).
The local sheriff of Dead River, Maine, thought he had killed them off ten years ago -- a primitive, cave-dwelling tribe of cannibalistic savages. But somehow the clan survived. To breed. To hunt. To kill and eat. And now the peaceful residents of this isolated town are fighting for their lives...
A lawyer puts his family in jeopardy when he captures the last member of a violent clan and tries to forcibly tame her.
Found at a Catholic hospital filthy and ferocious, feral teenager Darlin’ is whisked off to a care home run by The Bishop and his obedient nuns, where she’s to be rehabilitated into a "good girl" as an example of the miraculous work of the church. But Darlin’ holds a secret darker than the "sins" she is threatened with, and she is not traveling alone. The Woman who raised her, equally fierce and feral, is ever present in the shadows of Darlin’s psyche and is determined to come for her no matter who tries to get in her way.
