Scarecrows

In the stark, sun‑baked expanse surrounding Camp Pendleton, a band of hardened mercenaries—Corbin, Curry, Jack, Roxanne and Bert—find themselves thrust into a high‑stakes gamble that will test the limits of loyalty and desperation. Their world is a rugged mix of military precision and outlaw improvisation, a place where the desert’s emptiness amplifies every whispered plan and every uneasy glance. The tone is unrelenting, blending gritty realism with a creeping sense of dread that rises with every mile they travel.

When the group forces a small aircraft into their control, they take the pilot, Al, and his teenage daughter, Kellie, as reluctant companions on a desperate sprint toward the Mexican border. The cramped cockpit becomes a pressure cooker of conflicting motives: the civilian’s quiet resolve, the daughter’s uneasy bravery, and the thieves’ frayed camaraderie. An unexpected betrayal mid‑flight sets a new, tense trajectory, sending one of the men skyward with a secret burden and leaving the others to confront the fallout under the weight of the night.

The landing brings them to an isolated farm where rows of eerie scarecrows loom like silent sentinels over the fields. The darkness of a single, endless night blankets the landscape, turning every rustle and shadow into a potential threat. As the crew, the pilot, and the daughter circle each other, the thin line between hunter and hunted blurs, and the unsettling atmosphere pushes every character toward a confrontation that feels both inevitable and terrifyingly uncertain. The film trades the clamor of action for a slow‑burn tension, letting the stark setting and uneasy alliances shape a night that promises more than just survival.
