[edit] Synopsis

Opening scene: A jock is seen carrying a bundle of flowers. He creeps into the house of his supposed girlfriend. It's cold inside and he finally approaches a room where he sees a frozen corpse with his mouth wide open. He looks to the side and there are two more corpses....

Luke and Roger, two freshman, are virgins, desperate to get laid. While doing the laundry in their dorm, they meet two cousins called Lily and Constance. When Lily accidentally leaves a roll of quarters behind in the laundry, Luke goes to return them to her in her dorm room. When the girls come into the room before he leaves, he hides in the closet. Luke watches the girls open the windows and let the cold air surround them. He then watches in horror as tentacles appear from their chests and sexually arouse them.

Luke is sure that there is something strange about them. Then a corpse is found with his body frozen inside out and his mouth wide open. The forensic scientists assume a 'keg drinking tube' was shoved down his throat, but it was in fact an alien shoving a tentacle down his throat. Luke, with his best girl friend Alex, try to solve the mystery and exterminate them.

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Apparently, these aliens have come to earth in hopes of impregnating men, as their race is dying out. To save their race, the aliens persuade unsuspecting men to come with them to abandoned places, promising sex. However, the 'mating' process involves sticking their tentacles down the male's throat. Most men die in the process because they cannot survive the cold temperature and the aliens fail yet again to produce spawn. Roger allows an alien to 'mate' with him. Alex comes in just in time to see a baby alien crawl out of Roger's mouth, and Roger dies soon after.

Luke then discovers that, while the aliens love coldness they hate heat. In the end, using a fire blower, he exterminates Lily, Constance and the 'baby alien', now apparently a grown woman. Alex congratulates him and they start to have sex. There's a sudden flashback to the very beginning of the movie when the jock sees the dead people. He looks up and sees Alex who then says 'You're early'. Suddenly Luke realises Alex is an alien and he screams as she pins him down as her tentacles appear. The camera zooms out of the room as Luke's screams fade away.
