The crew—Alex, a disgraced journalist; Dr. Lena Sato, a virologist specializing in gene splicing; and Marcus, a ex-special forces operative—lands on the island via a charter plane arranged by a shadowy contact. The island’s jungle is a riot of emerald green, teeming with bioluminescent flora and eerie silence. As they set up camp, strange green mist rolls in at dusk, masking rustling noises. Their mission is to film for HDMovies4U , a streaming platform funding the expedition in hopes of a blockbuster series.
