a local archaeologist professor, and his wife Martha Thomas (Allison Adams) to lead the trip.
Together, along withbtheir student assistants, Todd, Nichelle, Lori, Allison, they set out on what appears
to be an innocent fact-finding exploration of the jungle. Soon, the team comes upon the deserted campsite of
a previous expedition. Confusion turns to terror when they discover the remains of several members
of the previous team, presumably torn apart by wild animal. Alison finds a journal kept by the
explorers revealing Wilson Friels as the one who funded their expedition. Friels comes clean and
admits that he funded both expeditions. His intentions was not to search for the Calusa, but to search
for the Fountain of Youth in their folkfore, as well as the mythical lost species of beast that is the guardian of the fountain.
By then, the mysterious and blood thristy creature has started systematically stalking and killing
each of them. The team is forced to make their stand against the creature, and try to
kill it before it kills them. Brinson survives an attack by the creature and begins to metamorphose
into a creature himself, His only hope is to drink some of the healing waters from the legendary
fountain, if it does indeed exist. Now, the remaining members of the team venture further into
the jungle to find the spring. Ultimately, they must figure out the terrible truth behind the Calusa Legend...
