Line 32:
[[Anthropology|Anthropological]] professor Conrad Hamilton attempts to study a new species of primate in Thailand; trying to find the missing link between humanity and the great ape. His team dies trying to catch one for study. Hamilton and his assistant Chenne, who survive because they are away from the campsite, scour the area looking for clues and the remains of their team.
 
Meanwhile, another research team is inbound: a crew of college anthropology students is heading there, with no idea for what is in store. They’re flown into a remote region of the African jungle and picked up by a guide who drives them deeper into the bush. He drops them off in a panic at the edge of the trail/road, which leads further into the foliage, claiming "bad things" are in there and will not go further. He heads back the way he came, leaving the students to march forth into the unknown. They walk until they reach the trail's end and set up camp. As evening sets in, noises from the jungle raise suspicion until a pair of glowing green eyes can be seen close by. Before the unknown creature attacks, Chenne arrives with a flare that scares off the unseen menace.
 
Chenne escorts the students to the relative safety of Professor Hamilton's camp, and the following day they meet the obsessed man and somewhat learn of his mission and purpose. Hamilton professes dream findings in an uncharted valley deep within the jungle and their potential for career-launching documentation. He has Chenne confiscate their mobile phones and hand out information bracelets for each member containing their emergency contact info. Then he leads the slightly unwilling team to the valley entrance. After a pep talk, Hamilton convinces the students to continue and rappel down the cliffside and into the valley, injuring Josh in the process.
