The story
Set some time after the events at the UNEEDA Warehouse in Louisville, KY, a U.S. military truck is transporting barrels of Trioxin, when one breaks loose and falls into a river without the driver noticing. The next morning, pre-teen bullies Johnny and Billy take a reluctant Jesse Wilson to a cemetery mausoleum for an initiation into their club.
