Plot

Six friends take a road trip to Galveston, Texas in an RV for the wedding of their friend, Kelly (Portia de Rossi). The driver, Johnny (Oz Perkins), gets lost and they arrive in the small town of Lovelock and his friends Sara (Ever Carradine), Kate (Bianca Lawson), Melody (Gina Philips), Christian (Jeremy Sisto), and David (Erik Palladino), decide to spend the night in the Bed and Breakfast owned by the creepy Mr. Robert Wise (David Carradine).

David has an argument with the chef of the inn, Henri (Diedrich Bader), and when the chef is found dead and Mr. Wise has a heart attack in the middle of the night, the local Sheriff (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) suspects the group of travelers and tells his Deputy, Enus (Mark Kelly) to seize the keys to their RV and stay in Lovelock for the duration of the investigation. Then the Sheriff arrests "The Mysterious Drifter" (Brent David Fraser) who soon becomes his prime suspect. When the clumsy Johnny accidentally breaks an ancient exotic wooden box belonging to Mr. Wise, he releases the terrible, monstrous "Kuman Thong" and the evil spirit held inside escapes and possesses all the local town folk, transforming them into zombies.

Ultimately, "The Mysterious Drifter", becomes our hero. He is a long time student of powers from "the other side", and a relentless hunter of the dreaded, evil "Kuman Thong". He is the only one who knows how to fight and kill the evil spirit, which he sets about doing, with the help of Sara and Melody, saving only the two remaining girls and himself, before leaving the destroyed Bed & Breakfast, and the pitiful ravaged town of Lovelock behind for good, but leaving room for a possible sequel.
