The sales team of Palisades Defense Corp., consisting of eight members led by their boss, Steve, arrives in Hungary for a mandatory team-building exercise at a remote mountain lodge. When they discover that the road to their destination is blocked by a fallen tree, they decide to hike through the nearby forest instead. Unbeknownst to them, a masked killer lurking in the woods begins targeting each of the employees one by one.
