Six teenagers on a chaperoned rehabilitation camping trip find themselves hunted by mutant giant birds infected with a mysterious virus that changes the birds into deadly predators.

Porky [Gabriel Costin] is the first to be injured by the birds. The counselor Guy is killed by birds. The teens devise a plan to escape, with Johnson [Jonathon Trent] proclaiming himself leader.

When they flee to a dangerous military bunker, the birds follow. Derrick [Bill Posley] takes Johnson’s gun. Johnson accidentally pushes Derrick’s hand, accidentally killing Hank [Calin Stanciu].

Eva [Sarah Butler] finds a walkie-talkie and gets in contact with park ranger [Lance Guest], asking for rescue. The group has no choice but to flee the fort as Porky is eaten alive. Garrett [Lance Guest] and Dr. Jacqueline Hale [Clare Carey] head out to save the teenagers.

A group of scientists and cops get killed while trying to destroy the birds. A nurse also gets infected and tries to leave the hospital; Security has no choice but to kill ker.

After fleeing successfully, Derrick is attacked by a bird, but escapes. The group continues north and discovers a house. They check the nearby shed, which is a meat locker.

Derrick’s infection begins ravaging his body and Johnson plans to shoot him because he’s a liability.

When Derrick jumps onto Johnson, Derrick’s saliva falls into Johnson’s mouth. Garrett and Jacqueline pinpoint the teens’ location, but can’t reach them because the birds are outside. The group makes a run for the meat shed. Lola [Rebekah Kochan] and Eva throw out some meat to catch the birds’ attention, but the birds aren’t taking it; they like fresh meat. Derrick hobbles out and offers himself as bait to the birds. They attack and eat him alive.

The group finally meets Garrett and Jacqueline and they load into the car. The birds attack the car. Garrett loses control, flipping the car over. Everyone takes shelter under a concrete tunnel. They return to the military bunker, which is leaking gas. A giant bird attacks the police helicopter, which crashes and explodes. A plan is made to destroy the birds using explosives. Johnson volunteers to be the bait to lure the birds in, since he had already been infected by Derrick. As they all flee, Eva pauses, looking back sadly at Johnson. He says he’ll make it, but the birds block his escape route. He shoots the explosive, sending the building into flames. The group leaves, remembering Johnson.
