Plot Summary
Template:Spoiler In 1974, a group of college kids are headed to Dallas through the back roads of Texas. On the way, they encounter a young hitchhiker who shoots herself with a revolver. The kids contact the sheriff, who takes a long time to come down to meet them. Two of them wander over to a large homestead, which they discover is inhabited by a family of psychopaths who support the grisly and abusive practices of their son: torturing, mutilating and wearing the dead skin of his victims. One at a time, the young college students fall prey to the demented family, until one girl Erin, portrayed by Jessica Biel discovers that this family has kidnapped a baby to raise as their own. She takes the baby from them, runs over the demented Sheriff and makes her way out of the horrible town.
