## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

The wind snaps jungle vines as a student’s shoe snags a hanging wing. Eight teens stagger from misty jungle onto bloodied coral. The radio’s static keeps time.

One girl’s field-guide becomes a shield against oversized hornets. Mosquito clouds rise with the tide.

Like early 80s kaiju comics drawn on newsprint.

**Mood tags**: 3am-cult
