Pre dvadeset godina Džonesi, Henri, Pit i Biver bili su klinci u malom gradu - deca koja su smogla hrabrosti da izdrže surovost detinjstva. Prilikom spasavanja dečaka po imenu Dudits oni neočekivano dobijaju petog prijatelja u centru svog kruga. Još veće iznenađenje su tajanstvene moći koje im je on preneo. Njihova veza postaje više od običnog prijateljstva. Sada su oni već odrasli, žive svoje živote i imaju svoje probleme, ali se sećaju svoje hrabrosti i moći koja im je više teret nego dar.
Kada jedna strašna nesreća zamalo liši života jednog od njih, u početku ne prepoznaju povratak strahote koja je nekako povezana sa Duditsom. Međutim, kada se ponovo sretnu na svom godišnjem odmoru u lovačkoj kolibi u severnim šumama, očekujući lepu zabavu, doživljavaju zlu kob koja ih sve pogađa. Najpre dolazi jedan stranac, izgubljeni lovac, koji nije svestan užasne zaraze koju nosi sa sobom. Za nogama mu je mećava, strašna oluja u kojoj je nešto još kobnije - smrtonosna nepoznata sila koja će odneti neke od njih i primorati one koji budu preživeli da još jednom dozovu svoje zaboravljene moći i suoče se sa neviđenim užasom.
Movie Info: Four men are changed forever by an act of mercy -- changes which have a profound impact many years later -- in this blend of horror and science fiction based on a novel by Stephen King. Jonesy (Damian Lewis), Henry (Thomas Jane), Pete (Timothy Olyphant), and Beaver (Jason Lee) were four friends who, as schoolboys, rescued a boy with Down's Syndrome, Duddits (Donnie Wahlberg), from a savage beating at the hands of bullies. Their experience with Duddits left the boys profoundly changed, as they discovered they had developed psychic powers which allowed them to wordlessly communicate with one another, read the minds of others, and see events in the future.
The four remained close friends into (zabranjeno)hood, and meet every year for a weekend get-together at a remote hunting lodge. However, one year Jonsey is approached by the spirit of Duddits, which leads him into a severe auto accident, though his wounds heal with mysterious speed and are gone by the time he and the guys get together a few months later. As the guys drink and swap stories, a desperately ill hunter makes his way into the cabin, whose body has become the host for a horrible wormlike creature, which breaks free and soon goes on a killing spree, leaving only Henry alive.
In the wake of this attack comes a massive snowstorm, and Henry learns that these events are the first signs of a major attack by a powerful alien force which can assume any form it wishes. As duplicitous military leader Col. Abraham Curtis (Morgan Freeman) comes in to quell the menace, Henry finds himself in communication with the late Jonsey, whose previous near-death experience gives him an unexpected advantage in stemming the alien tide.
