The story takes place in a quiet, charming village that seems normal on the outside but hides a sinister truth. The elderly folks have found a means to prolong their lives by using a serum made from young people’s cells. They abduct gullible guests and drain their life force, leaving behind lifeless shells, in order to obtain this serum.
A shot of the principal actress Lynda Wiesmeier posing with her co-star, both dressed in throwback manner, is one of the fascinating moments the film examines.
