Attempting to save his failing marriage, Jim Anderson moves his family from California to the Wisconsin town of Prairie Rest. For a while, things seem to be working. Then it goes bad. Very bad. Very fast. The mysterious death of his young son, Travis, triggers a chain of events that consumes the rest of his family and threatens the entire village. Jarvis Clark, one of the Town Elders, tells Jim that his arrival has awakened an evil existing deep within the earth. Convinced by Jarvis that he is also one of The Chosen, Jim reluctantly joins Jarvis and the other Town Elders to fight the ancient evil. In a cave on Anderson’s property, The Elders, armed with the weapons of the Lord and things they’d taken from the hardware store, prepare to make their stand. But can something older than time really be destroyed?
