Dr. Gautham Subramanian, his wife Neha, and their daughter Maya are on a road trip when their car breaks down near the isolated village of Kattiyal. Stranded and desperate for help, Gautham enters the village, only to stumble into a nightmare. The once-peaceful community seems to be overrun by bloodthirsty mutants who stalk the night. Determined to protect his family from the escalating horror, Gautham knows they must escape Kattiyal. But the village holds a dark secret, and as Gautham searches for answers, he uncovers a conspiracy that goes far beyond terrifying creatures. He soon realizes the mutants are connected to the village's troubled past, and a powerful corporation may be behind the sinister events unfolding. In a race against time, Gautham must not only find a way to save his family from the clutches of the mutants, but also unravel the horrifying truth that lies at the heart of Kattiyal, before it's too late.
