It’s a great experience for the group…until they try to leave. Simon and Kit must save themselves, and whatever seniors they can, from becoming victims of a deadly rodeo ritual. Along the way they join up with another unexpected group of victims, including a one-armed cowboy, Ennis [Flanery], Rosheen, the rodeo queen, and Trish, a powerhouse female bull rider. Together the group must fight to survive the night from relentless bloodthirsty cowboys on the hunt for human livestock.” See the movie’s webpage here.
