It is a race against time when a mysterious organism strikes a mid-western city causing the worst parasitic outbreak in the history of the United States.

In Chicago, doctors must track down a hidden killer that attacks a group of students on a spring break trip, and a flesh-eating monster is on the loose in a Texas community.
