Premise
Lin Shu-wei is a meek, straight-A student who gets harassed all the time by classmates. Unjustly accused of stealing money, Lin is assigned to do community service alongside with three bullies from class. As the gang of bullies progressively accept him as one of their own, Lin partakes in their misdeeds to seek their approval. During a night out, the group stumble upon a pair of flesh-eating female ghouls and capture one of them; they begin a sadistic game, which ultimately leads to disastrous consequences.
