In 1925, naturalist Dr. Ernest Bartels is summoned to the lush rainforests of Java.

The island's once pristine landscape is under threat from relentless "progress," and it is up to him to protect its delicate ecology before it is destroyed. But now, as the sun sets, the people realize they are the ones who need to be saved.

A monstrous creature stalks them in the shadows. Its territorial nature drives it to hunt any who dare trespass on its domain, wielding leathery wings that blot out the stars, razor-sharp claws that shred flesh with ease, and a blood-curdling cry that echoes through the night.

So now, a former military commander, a fierce native girl, and a timid bookworm must unite and confront their fears to save themselves and the rest of the island. The night grows darker and the stakes higher as they race against time, knowing that one wrong move could mean the end for all of them.

Inspired by actual events, this fictional epic tale combines adventure and horror within an exotic location that will have you listening in the dark for the Cry of the Ahool. .
