For five idyllic years, Evelyn adored Goldie, the four-meter Burmese python her loving husband Ethan gifted her as living jewelry. She crafted luxury necklaces by its terrarium, laughing off warnings from her exotic-veterinarian friend Adrian. Her domestic haven shatters when Goldie ceases feeding and begins stretching alongside her sleeping frame every night. The creature is not ill; it is measuring her body for consumption.
When Evelyn begs Ethan for help, he bribes the clinic, shuts down the municipal power grid, and locks the computerized security doors from the exterior. Imprisoned in pitch-black darkness alongside a starving apex predator, Evelyn realizes her entire marriage was a calculated assassination plot designed to collect life insurance. Armed only with artisan tools, she must survive the night to destroy her smiling executioner.
