A group of friends gathers at a remote cabin for a holiday weekend, only to find themselves trapped in a game room by a mysterious killer. The antagonist forces them to participate in a twisted game that targets their racial identities, claiming they are not "black enough" to survive. They must use their knowledge of horror movie tropes and their own camaraderie to outsmart the killer. The scenario satirizes genre conventions while putting the characters through a deadly test.
