Synopsis

The night brings out the romance in people, especially the handsome airport shopkeep Martin Hussey. He is a lonely young man, and working the night shift brings an array of sultry sensuous passengers within Martin's grasp. Embracing those ready to find love, Martin controls an erratic but well-balanced lifestyle. Then unexpectedly, he discovers erotic human passion—unleashing a raging, terrorizing evil.
