📖 Story
When a family vacation turns deadly in Primate, a young woman faces an impossible choice between the bond she shares with her childhood companion and the primal threat he's become. A bite changes everything—transforming a beloved pet into something unrecognizable and ferocious. Trapped with friends in an isolated home, she must confront not only the violence consuming the chimp, but the guilt of knowing the gentle creature she once cradled is now hunting them. Survival demands sacrifice, and mercy becomes a luxury none of them can afford.
