Dave Drayton vive con la moglie e il figlioletto Billy in una casa fuori città. Subito dopo una tempesta particolarmente violenta inizia a diffondersi una nebbia che non sembra avere ragioni meteorologiche. Insieme al vicino di casa Brent Norton (col quale non ha buoni rapporti) e a Billy Dave si dirige con il suo fuoristrada verso il supermercato locale. Lungo il percorso incontrano mezzi militari che si dirigono verso la nebbia. Brent fa allora riferimento a un misterioso Progetto. Ben presto tutti gli occupanti del supermercato si troveranno avvolti dalla nebbia all'interno della quale si muovono creature mostruose. L'incubo ha inizio.
