Five high school teens take an impromptu weekend camping trip to a notorious desolate party spot. Following their ignorant group leader John they anticipated a fun weekend camping getaway composed of getting stoned and drinking beer. Upon arrival they quickly realized that it might be a less than exciting field trip as the location was far removed from any other human life.

He cautioned the group of the "Beer Hunter" a legend who had taken many lives out of resentment to those who littered their beer cans in the woods and who out of stupidity set fire to his remote wood cabin. The "Beer Hunter's" spirit had lived on to get revenge on ignorant careless teenagers. Although freaked the majority of the group shook off the tall tale split and retired to bed; John with his two female groupies and Steve with his girlfriend Shannon. After a morning hike Steve and John returned to the car only to find that the tires on Steve's Range Rover had been slashed. Without a spare no cell phone coverage for miles and unwilling to drive on the tire rims they appeared to be stuck in the woods. Again out of nowhere The Ranger appeared and agreed to meet the guys at the car at sunset to help them get cell reception. Nightfall came and went with no sign of The Ranger and slowly but surely the group began to winnow.
