Synopsis:
Epsilon Valley is a town menaced by an insidious parasitical lifeform that preys on humans, swampies - a new breed of hyper-predatory humanoids with no male of the species.
Evolved to emulate human women, they use men in order to reproduce. This grim, erotic horror tale tells the shocking story of Riley, a disenchanted youth, who is stalked by the lascivious swampy, Ursa.
Riley is coerced into having sex with the swampies and becomes infected with a transmogrifying virus. The swampies have sinister plans for him – and the entire human race.
Struggling within a climate of fear and denial, Riley’s family and friends attempt to save him. However, Riley’s fate is sealed and he is marked for death in order that a new swampy may live.
