Plot
Lisa Sherwood lived in a quiet village, mainly isolated from the rest of civilization. As a little girl, she took an interest in symbols, said to be magic. After being ridiculed by her grandmother for scratching a symbol into her textbook, she passes her test the next day, and her friend, Pam, tries to use the symbols herself, but Lisa doesn't let her. The next day, Pam's English teacher is reported to have died and Pam is relieved she doesn't have to do the test and mocks his death. During the funeral, Pam constantly makes fun of the English Teacher as the pallbearers struggle with his coffin, when one of them trips on a rock and they all drop the coffin, killing Pam.

Years later, Lisa is walking home through the woods when she is knocked out and wakes up in an unknown location with several people who are in pain. 3 people come in and cut skin off one of the other victims and eat the skin. Over the next few weeks, Lisa has her skin cut off, eaten by the cannibals and forced to eat the flesh of the other victims, and herself. Eventually, the cannibals are visited by Grandma, the village elder, revealed to be their leader. Lisa eventually escaped and killed the cannibals. She tried to get help, but was too weak to reach the village, she carved a symbol into the ground before passing out from pain.

Years later, Ace Visconti, a gambler, is entered into a poker tournament on a steamship, unaware that he is being pursued by debt collector, Geoff Bradley, and detective, David Block, investigating Ace's ties to the mafia. Other guests on the ship include voice actor, B, surfer dude, Brody, ghetto girl, Latoya, sisters, Anne and Maria, preppy rich boy, Topper, athlete, Sky, former tennis champion, Pete, vegan, Miles and hippy, Mary. The tournament goes on with Ace doing well, when the lights on the ship go out, David goes to see the captain, finding him killed with parts of his flesh bitten off. The ship crashes forcing everyone to get off. Everyone searches through the swamp, hoping to find someone that could help them get home.

The group sees several symbols carved into the trees, which Miles says are meant to be warning symbols. The group split up and Mary sits down to smoke some weed, when she feels blood drip onto her face. Brody hears her screaming and finds her body decapitated, before he is grabbed by the ankle and dragged into the swamp. David and Ace find an area of the swamp filled with crashed ships. They investigate one of the ships and find several bodies hanging from hooks.

After finding another ship, Topper finds some muddy footprints and follows them to find a muddy and bloody creature eating Brody, the creature turns around and kills Topper. Anne and Maria find a room on the ship filled with newspaper clippings about sightings of a creature called 'The Hag'. The sisters get scared when The Hag appears in the room and rips out Maria's heart and eats it while Anne runs away. When Anne thinks she's escaped, The Hag catches her and hangs her on a hook, as The Hag is about to leave, she stops and writes a symbol in the ground.

B and Latoya find a radio on one of the ships and try to use it to contact someone to help, but the radio is broken. The Hag arrives on the ship and decapitates them both with her sharp claws. Ace and David find Anne hanging from the hook, she warns them to stay away when the symbol in the ground causes The Hag to burst out of the ground, scaring Ace. David shoots at The Hag, but one bullet reduces The Hag to a pile of mud, revealing it to be a fake. Ace gets Anne down from the hook and she explains what's going on with The Hag.

Sky, Pete and Miles search through another ship when The Hag arrives and chases them through the ship. Pete hides in a closet, but is caught by The Hag, who kills him by biting his throat. Sky finds the ship's kitchen and tries to fight back with a meat cleaver, but The Hag is still able to kill her. Geoff meets up with the others and threatens Ace with a gun, ignoring the warnings about The Hag until Miles arrives with a book on magic and realizes that a symbol in the book could work to stop The Hag. The group run from The Hag when Anne trips and is killed by The Hag.

The remaining survivors return to the original ship and try to lure The Hag, where Geoff readies the symbol. When The Hag arrives, Geoff tries to lure The Hag onto the symbol, but the symbol doesn't work and The Hag pounces on Geoff, biting off his face, before ripping out some of his guts to eat.

Miles realizes that the symbol was not the right one and tries to draw the symbol correctly while Ace and David try to keep The Hag busy. While walking around the ship, Ace agrees to tell David everything about his mafia ties if they make it out of the situation alive. During this time, The Hag sneaks up on Miles and rips off her head before she could finish the symbol. When The Hag is about to kill David, Ace grabs the paintbrush and finishes the symbol, getting rid of The Hag.

David and Ace find a working ship and sail away from the swamp to return to civilization.
