As Core attempts to help Medora track down the wolves who took her son, a strange and dangerous relationship develops between the two lonely souls. But when Medora’s husband Vernon [Skarsgård] returns home from the Iraq War, the news of his child’s death ignites a violent chain of events. As local cop, Donald Marium [Dale], races to stop Vernon’s vengeful rampage, Core is forced on a perilous odyssey into the heart of darkness.” The movie’s Netflix page can be found here.
