The Genesis Project

Professor Davis has just given his college psychology class an assignment. Pick a topic and study it firsthand through experience. One group of five students believe they have thought of the perfect topic for their project, studying serial killers to see what turns a normal person into a murderer. David, the smartest, yet most socially challenged student in the group, studies FBI Profiling techniques and soon the group decides that they have enough knowledge and information to catch the serial killer that is loose in their town. Using Tiffany, the only female in the group as bait, they lay a trap for the killer that almost gets her killed and everyone else thrown in jail. The group stumbles onto some information which leads them to the killer's hideout and after a near-fatal encounter, the group manages to capture him and take him to a holding shack in the woods. At the holding shack, they torture the killer to learn the location of a missing girl, and for what they believe to be justice. But things do not go as planned and one of the students ends up dead. The group then finds themselves caught in the middle of a bloody web of lies and deceit, where each student must decide whose life is more important, their own, or one of the other group members.
