Reality show contestant Kimberly is driving through the West Virginia back country searching for the location of her next project. While driving, she accidentally hits a teenager. She stops to check on him, but the teenager is revealed to be Brother, a cannibal, who bites her lips off. She attempts to escape, but runs into Three Finger, who splits her in half vertically with an axe. He and Brother drag her halves away.
Former U.S. Marine Colonel Dale Murphy is hosting a survival reality game show Ultimate Survivalist: The Apocalypse, in the West Virginia forest with contestants including: lingerie model Elena, wisecracking skateboarder Matt Jones also known as Jonesy, U.S. Marine officer and Iraq veteran Amber Williams, former high school football player Jake Washington and a goth Nina Papas. After Kimberly does not show up, the show's producer Mara Stone reluctantly takes her place.
When the game starts, Three Finger kills Neil, one of the television crew. While Dale prepares for the games, Three Finger and another cannibal Pa, attack and knock him unconscious. Nina and Mara find a log cabin in the woods. Mara enters the cabin to try to find a telephone as Nina follows her. While they look around the house, they hear the occupants return, so they hide in a bedroom. They witness a female cannibal, Ma, giving birth to a deformed baby. Her daughter, Sister, spots Nina and Mara in the bedroom, forcing the two to escape through the toilet pit. They run into the woods, but Mara is hit in the head with a thrown axe by Pa. Nina searches for the others as the cannibals collect Mara's body.
After showrunner M and Elena have sex, he returns to the RV while Elena stays by a lake to tan in her underwear. When Elena hears the cannibals, she starts to get dressed as Sister emerges from the bushes and slashes her to death with a machete. While M is in the RV, Ma and Pa hijack it. Pa attacks M and captures him. Meanwhile, Dale manages to escape and battles Three Finger. After a short fight, Dale shoots Three Finger with a shotgun.
