What weapon does the old man initially threaten Joe with?
An old man finds himself suddenly awakening in a secluded cabin nestled deep in the woods. Alone and filled with an unsettling erratic energy, he frantically calls out for someone named Rascal, vehemently threatening to kill them if they ever dare to return. Just then, a young hiker named Joe, claiming to be lost in the wilderness, knocks on the cabin door. The old man, alarmed, holds him at gunpoint, demanding to know if he has any information on Rascal’s whereabouts or if he has been sent by the old man’s estranged wife.
After a tense standoff, the old man eventually allows Joe to enter, yet continues to maintain a vigilant watch, his shotgun never wavering. While rummaging through Joe’s belongings, the old man discovers a knife and decides to keep it for himself. When Joe attempts to make an escape, the old man fires a shot, preventing him from leaving.
In an unexpected twist, the two engage in a conversation, sharing their life stories. Joe reveals the distressing nature of his own home life and recounts hearing strange moans in the woods before losing consciousness. Meanwhile, the old man narrates a haunting tale of his past—how he captured and tortured a Bible Salesman who had once crossed his threshold, while also recalling hearing similar eerie sounds. He explains that the sounds led him to a leopard, which he subsequently killed, its head now displayed on the wall of his cabin.
With the old man leaving to prepare a meal, Joe attempts to reclaim his knife, only to find it stained with blood. Suddenly, he vanishes from the cabin, replaced by Rascal, a menacing figure in black who terrorizes the old man. Rascal compels the old man to open a mysterious chest in the living room, suggesting that its contents will reveal the truth behind his wife’s departure.
As the chest opens, the old man is plunged into a haunting vision of Joe—his younger self—returning to his childhood bedroom. In a shocking scene, Joe discovers his wife engaged with the Bible Salesman. In a fit of rage, pushed by the cacophony of moans, he shoots the salesman dead. His wife, attempting to flee, meets a tragic end at the hands of the knife.
Returning to the present, the old man pleads for forgiveness from a vision of his wife, echoing the remorseful cries of the salesman in his earlier memory. However, she denies him, emphasizing the torment he faces. Rascal is unmasked as a different version of Joe, ensuring the old man is trapped in an endless cycle of reliving the traumatic double murder. After reminding the old man of his dark memories, Rascal departs, leaving him to awaken once more, prepared to relive the haunting loop yet again.
