A group of friends travel to an isolated area of Hawaii to get away from it all and relax for the weekend. The group is relaxing around their cars drinking beer and listening to the radio, when suddenly there is a bright flash in the sky and a meteorite crashes to the ground near their party. The small explosion from the meteor sends out an electro-magnetic pulse that kills the batteries in their cars. While attempting to investigate the explosion, some of the group comes across a small glowing orb floating in the air. One by one the orb enters the friends' bodies and takes control of them, turning them into mindless killers. Each victim that is taken by the orb begins to bleed from the eyes and sees everything in red. The group runs for their lives not knowing who has been infected by the orb and who they can trust. In the end, Kathy is the lone survivor, and she is also running for her life from the mysterious orb. The problem is she doesn't know where the orb is. She sees a bright light coming towards her and turns to run, when she realizes it is the headlights of a car. Kathy recognizes the car as her boyfriend's, runs to the car and jumps in. Once inside she tells Ron to hurry and get out of there. Ron turns to Kathy, and we see he is bleeding from his eyes.
