While home alone, young Samantha becomes the victim of a merciless demon.

Based on the Stephen King short story of the same name, IN THE DEATHROOM takes place in the not-so-distant future, when "enhanced interrogation" is primetime entertainment.

Carter is a shy movie theatre clerk who gets set up for a date by his coworker, Aria. Later on his way home, Carter buys a packaged meal of chicken fingers from the local corner market, where he meets a strange man working the till. That night, Carter is rocked by ass-annihilating gastrointestinal carnage. And the emergence of an egg; inside, a strange creature, which he names Xavier. Xavier quickly grows, and feeds even quicker. On the eve of his big date, Carter struggles to keep the beast in check - and the girl from being eaten alive.
