Synopsis

Jay, her brother, and 4 friends seeking refuge from a torrential storm break into what they think is an abandoned recycling plant. Incredibly, they find that they've stumbled into the aftermath of a horribly brutal double murder , the only survivor of which is a SLEEPER - a coma patient hooked up to life support in a triple-locked, shatter-proof observation room.
Closer examination reveals a disturbing truth: the SLEEPER is Orin Kiefer, a murderer executed by lethal injection six years earlier for butchering his family.
Trapped inside with this comatose madman, they soon discover there is no escape and the SLEEPER is not as harmless as he would seem...
