Plot
Reality show contestant Kimberly is driving through the West Virginia back country searching for the location of her next project. While driving, she accidentally hits a teenager. She stops to check on him, but the teenager is revealed to be a cannibal, Brother, and bites her lips off. She attempts to escape, but runs into Three-Finger, who splits her in half with an axe. He and Brother drag her halves away.
Former U.S. Marine Colonel Dale Murphy (Henry Rollins) is hosting a survival reality game show in the West Virginia forest, with contestants including: promiscuous Elena (Crystal Lowe), wisecracking skateboarder Jonesy (Steve Braun), U.S. Marine officer and Iraq veteran Amber (Daniella Alonso), former high school football player Jake (Texas Battle) and a goth Nina (Erica Leerhsen). After Kimberly does not show up, the show's producer Mara (Aleksa Palladino) reluctantly takes her place.
When the game starts, Three-Finger kills Neil, one of the television crew, and dons his scalp as a hairpiece. While Dale prepares the games, Three-Finger and another cannibal, Pa, attack and knock him unconscious. Nina and Mara find a log cabin in the woods. Mara enters the cabin to try to find a telephone as Nina follows her. While they look around the house, they hear the occupants return, so they hide in a bedroom. They witness a female cannibal, Ma, giving birth to a deformed baby. Her daughter, Sister, spots Nina and Mara in the bedroom, forcing the two to escape through the toilet pit. They run into the woods, but Mara is hit in the head by a thrown axe. Nina searches for the others as the cannibals collect Mara's body.
After showrunner M (Matthew Currie Holmes) and Elena have sex, he returns to the RV as Elena stays by a lake. When Elena hears the cannibals, she starts to get dressed as Sister emerges from the bushes and slashes her to death with a machete. While M is in the RV, Pa and Ma hijack it. Pa attacks M, and returns home. Meanwhile, Dale manages to escape, and battles Three-Finger. After a short fight, Dale shoots Three-Finger with a shotgun.
As Jake, Amber and Jonesy are eating some meat they found, Nina returns and tells her story. When Jake realizes it was Kimberly's leg they had been eating, he, Nina, Amber and Jonesy attempt to escape. Dale finds the old man from the first film in his cabin. The old man tells him how the cannibals' mutations were caused by inbreeding and effluent dumped in the river by the abandoned paper mill, and then reveals that he is their father and attacks Dale. After a brief skirmish, Dale kills the old man by blowing him up with a stick of dynamite. After finding the RV gone, the others run towards the woods and encounter Brother and Sister. After fighting the cannibals, Jake searches for Nina while Amber and Jonesy go for help. Jake rescues Nina from a pit, and they jump into the river to escape Sister.
After Jonesy and Amber are killed in a trap, Nina and Jake make it to the mill. They enter the mill and find a garage full of vehicles stolen from prior victims. They find the RV, and Jake enters it and witnesses M being decapitated on a live feed monitor inside. Jake and Nina attempt to leave, but Sister and Pa capture them. The abandoned mill is revealed to be the mutant's home. Jake is strung up and Nina is strapped to a chair with barbed wire. The mutants eat dinner, and force feed Nina.
Dale sneaks into the compound and distracts the cannibals. As the cannibals are searching for him, Dale kills Brother and Sister with dynamite attached to an arrow. He frees Nina and Jake, but is killed by Pa and Ma, who were incensed by the deaths of their children. Nina successfully escapes, but Jake wanders into a room fitted with an enormous tree debarker, where he is attacked by Ma and Pa. Nina returns to the mill and kills Pa and Ma by pushing them into the debarker. Jake and Nina find Kimberly's abandoned car and drive away. Meanwhile, by the river, Three-Finger is shown feeding the mutant baby with a finger and a bottle filled with polluted water. His cackle is heard as the credits roll.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“James’s great gift, of course, was his ability to tell a plot in shimmering detail with such delicacy of treatment and such fine aloofness—that is, reluctance to engage in any direct grappling with what, in the play or story, had actually “taken place”Mthat his listeners often did not, in the end, know what had, to put it in another way, “gone on.””
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“But, when to Sin our byast Nature leans,
The careful Devil is still at hand with means;
And providently Pimps for ill desires:
The Good Old Cause, reviv’d, a Plot requires,
Plots, true or false, are necessary things,
To raise up Common-wealths and ruine Kings.”
—John Dryden (1631–1700)
“The plot! The plot! What kind of plot could a poet possibly provide that is not surpassed by the thinking, feeling reader? Form alone is divine.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
