In the near future, where normal life on earth has been decimated, Paul (Nicolas Cage) and his two sons, Thomas (Maxwell
Jenkins) and Joseph (Jaeden Martell), have been living a half-life - tranquility by day and torment by night. Every night,
after the sun sets, they face the unrelenting attacks of a mysterious and violent evil. When Thomas doesn't return home
before sundown, Paul must leave the safety of their fortified farm to find him. A nightmarish battle ensues and forces the
family to execute a desperate plan to survive.
