A cosmic horror comedy that will wrap its arms right around you...
New York City - 1985

An outbreak of random hugging turns the five boroughs into an apocalyptic nightmare.
Only violence and a true will to survive can help get seventeen-year-old Tim Flanders and his crew of misfits from Brooklyn to the Bronx, where a psychic premonition will lead them to their salvation.
A bizarre and disturbing odyssey through the city is the only path they can take, as reality breaks apart like a shattered window, revealing things that can shatter the mind as well.
To be hugged by the infected is to become one of them.
The virus quickly spreads, turning the population into mindless beings with a desperate desire to reach out and touch someone.
You can run and you can hide.
You can even fight your way through them.
Whatever you do, don't let them put their arms around you... Unless you want a comforting embrace from Hell.
