Four couples stranded at a remote lakeside cabin on the eve of an apparent alien invasion discover that not everything is as it appears to be.
Synopsis
It was supposed to be a weekend away. Four couples settle into a cabin on a quiet northern lake as the news fills with reports of an alien invasion, the roads close behind them and the phones go dead. As the night wears on, the guests start to suspect that the thing they should be afraid of is already inside the cabin with them, and that at least one of the people they arrived with is no longer who they say they are.
Night of the Skinwalkers is a single-location science-fiction horror film, written, shot, edited and finished in-house by VIDART. The poster line says it best: four couples, a remote lakeside cabin, the eve of an apparent alien invasion. This is one party they will wish they never crashed.
