The movie is directed by Susannah O'Brien and stars Justin Arnold, Andrea Nelson, and Don Scribner in the lead roles. The movie starts with a group of five college students planning a camping trip to the woods. The group is composed of Amanda, Ben, Nathan, Liz, and Riley. On their way to the campsite, they stop at a convenience store to buy food and supplies. While there, they meet an old man who warns them of danger in the woods and tells them to leave immediately. However, the group ignores his warning and continues with their plan.

Upon reaching the campsite, the group settles down and starts exploring the area. Nathan, the geeky member of the group, finds an unusual object buried in the ground. The object is a pulsating orb that emits a strange light. The group is fascinated by the object and decides to investigate further.

As the night falls, strange events start occurring in the campsite. The group hears eerie noises and sees odd shadows moving around. The orb starts emitting a stronger light and begins affecting the group's behavior. They begin to experience hallucinations and start questioning their own reality. Nathan, who has scientific knowledge about extraterrestrial life, suspects that the object is an alien artifact.

The group is thrown into panic when they discover that the orb has disappeared overnight. They decide to search for it and set out into the woods. As they progress deeper into the forest, they encounter strange creatures and bizarre landscapes. They also experience flashbacks and visions of their past, suggesting that the orb has the power to manipulate time and space.

As they near the source of the strange occurrences, they come face to face with an alien presence. The alien communicates with them through telepathy and reveals that the orb is a device that records and analyzes human emotions. The alien explains that they use the device to understand human behavior and improve their own society.

The group is shocked by the revelation and decides to destroy the orb, fearing that it poses a threat to humanity. However, the alien warns them that destroying the device would result in a catastrophic event. The group is torn between their morals and the safety of the world.
