SYNOPSIS:
In the backwoods of Southern California, the Turner family operates F.B.I. (Federal Bug Investigation)—a cut-rate pest control outfit that doubles as a DIY genetic testing ground. When Mikey, the family’s resident bio-hacker, uses CRISPR technology to gene-edit their pet raccoon, Jake, he inadvertently triggers a biological nightmare.
Jake is reborn as the "Trash King": a hyper-intelligent, bulletproof, French-speaking apex predator with a tactical mind and a twisted romantic obsession. After the creature’s initial bloodsoaked rampage, only three survivors are left standing: Sylvia, the family’s backbone; Larry, her crude, shotgun-toting hillbilly brother; and JD, Sylvia’s boyfriend, who takes his fake Federal Bug Investigation tactical gear way too seriously.
Trapped in a home turned into a makeshift fortress, the trio must survive a night of hyper-violent, gonzo warfare. The Trash King isn’t just looking for his next meal; he’s decided Sylvia is his rightful queen. To prevent a monstrous "royal wedding," Sylvia, Larry, and JD must navigate a gauntlet of makeshift flamethrowers, highoctane traps, and absolute carnage. It’s a battle of human dysfunction versus evolutionary madness.
