In order to save the life of a young prostitute named Carla, Officer Eric Boggs must shoot and kill her pimp, Riggo Valentine. Before dying, Riggo declares that he is all-powerful and will be back to seek revenge. As Boggs watches Riggo’s body being carried away by the paramedics, he receives a phone call from someone claiming to be Riggo. When Boggs receives another call later that evening from the same person, he is told that the fight is far from over. Boggs suspects that the caller may have been one of Riggo’s partners in search of revenge, but is informed that Riggo only worked alone. Spooked enough to visit Riggo’s body in the morgue, Boggs’ partner convinces him that he is just imagining things, and that he should take some time off. Boggs receives a third phone call from Riggo, who threatens to kill Carla. Boggs rushes to find and protect her. Carla, however, refuses his aide and later turns up dead. Soon after, Boggs receives another call during which he hears only a terrified Carla screaming. He traces the call to a non-functioning phone booth near the site where he originally shot Riggo. Upon arriving there, Boggs must sacrifice his own life to be able to protect Carla from being tormented by Riggo forever.

Vince Hanson is broke and out of work. One day, Vince is visited one day by two strangers, Michael and Muriel, who inform him that he has been chosen to lead a better life and hand Vince a DVD that visually recounts his past failures and disappointments, including his recent break-up with his girlfriend, Leah. Deeply disturbed by his strange visitors, Vince seeks help from his friend, Speed, who has also been visited by Michael and Muriel. The following day, Vince is confronted by a religious zealot who warns him that there are aliens roaming the streets from which he must be saved. After Vince is turned down from a job interview, he suffers further rejection when Leah tells him that she will never get back together with him unless he grows up and makes something of his life. Later that day, Vince sees Speed walking into his house, accompanied by Michael and Muriel. After a blindingly bright light emanates from the windows, Vince rushes into the house to find Speed missing and the same DVD playing on the TV, telling him that he has been chosen. When a representative from Homeland Security visits Vince warning him to be careful about whom he lets inside his home, Vince rushes to warn Leah. Leah surprisingly promises to get back together with him if he accompanies her in joining Michael and Muriel. Vince, however, refuses to be swayed by Leah and rushes home to prepare for the final encounter with the mysterious strangers.
