Buried Alive

Rene is in the bath with Zane when he pushes her underwater. She begins to drown, and while looking up, she sees the visage of an old woman above. She wakes from the nightmare as Danny wakes her, and the couple share a brief kiss.

Zane brings Rene, Danny, Phil, and the two sorority pledges, Julie and Laura, to the old family house to learn more about their history. The pledges are forced into animal costumes as part of their initiation. On the road, Zane repeatedly sees the old woman, culminating in her appearing in the middle of the road and nearly causing a crash.

Lester lives in a trailer on the property, secretly searching for gold and showing off his stuffed curios. He warns the group not to go into the subcellar or to go outside after dark. His warnings set a tense, ominous tone for what is to come.

During their investigation, Phil explains what he knows about Rene and Zane's family history. He steps outside to get a signal and is cut in half by a ghost armed with an axe. Rene and the others react with shock and fear to the brutal murder.

Rene prompts Julie and Laura to perform the Godiva Run, a college tradition involving running almost naked. Laura races across desert toward Lester's caravan and returns with one of his stuffed animals, while Julie wears pants and sprains her ankle trying to follow suit. The dare deepens the group’s uneasy dynamic.

Rene orders Julie to remove all clothes except underwear and to be blindfolded. Rene then takes Zane's belt and uses it as a test of trust on Julie. Rene and Laura depart, leaving Julie alone in the tense ritual.

Danny goes outside to fetch Phil but returns to report that Phil is dead, his body found with his face cut off. The group reels from the sudden, brutal loss as fear escalates. The mystery surrounding the family history grows more dangerous.

When the lights go out, Zane checks a machine and finds the system is still running but the cable is cut. He, Rene, and Laura discover Danny's faceless body, deepening the sense that a malevolent force stalks them. The group suspects more sinister intent behind the disappearances.

The trio initially suspects Lester might be behind the murders, but they soon discover that Lester is dead as well. The body count rises, and the danger within the property becomes undeniable. They cling to the hope of escape while confronting the supernatural threat.

They attempt to flee in a car, but the vehicle has been sabotaged. They grab Lester's keys and Laura dashes to Lester's caravan to retrieve his truck. The tension mounts as the group scrambles to find a way out of the escalating danger.

Inside a barricaded room, Rene feels the ghostly presence as a spirit scratches Sins Of The Father on her back. Zane fights the ghost and manages to break through, but the ghost reappears to strike again and knocks him unconscious. The siblings' survival feels increasingly precarious.

Laura returns with Lester's truck and the killer closes in on her, only to vanish after she notices a tattoo similar to Rene's necklace. Laura seizes the opportunity to escape, leaving the danger temporarily behind. The mystery of the necklace and the killer's motive deepens.

Rene and Zane awaken to find themselves trapped in a box. The old woman seizes the necklace and drops the gold ring found at the start of the tale. The siblings scream in fear as the woman buries them alive, sealing their fate in a grim finale.
