Four young friends on a camping adventure in the outback are chased and deliberately run off the highway by the Road Train — a massive and unrelenting two-trailer truck. Stranded amongst the wreckage, their only option is to approach the truck, now standing parked and seemingly abandoned. What lies inside proves more terrifying than anything they've experienced.
