Storyline
When a young man named Len meets his maternal grandfather Clyde for the first time, he volunteers to become his caregiver in the hopes of learning more about his deceased mother and the father he never knew. As he spends more time researching his heritage, Len unearths a terrible secret: Clyde is a prolific serial killer who has buried dozens of people on his 200 acres of land. Len comes face to face with the unnatural motivation behind Clyde’s sinister deeds when he provokes the monstrous fungal organism living beneath the soil that feeds off the victims.
