Dave wants to make the best damn lesbian vampire movie in the history of cinema. Staci wants to fulfill the promise she made to her father and become a successful actress (and buy a mansion in Hollywood and a Ferrari) before her mother forces her into a life of office work. Siobhan wants to make a movie someone notices before she becomes a grandmother. Corrine wants to get through the shoot without being badgered into doing a lesbian scene with her twin sister or eaten by wild dogs.
But something worse than Dave's script is waiting for them on the remote Scottish island where they plan to shoot the movie.
