The basic story is an Archaeologist going out to look for the old van from the 1970s, his parents were Hippies of sorts and disappeared all those years ago. He has some fresh ideas and knows there was a search for a fountain of youth in a cave. It is set and filmed in Texas, west of San Antonio, using the Sonora Caverns as the location for most of the filming.
When he does not return a couple of students of his and a couple of additional young friends set out to find him. That is when the action really starts. The first strange thing is when one of them exits the cave after only a few minutes, and looks up the jeep, the battery is dead and it is covered in old growth vines. That is the hint, somehow in the cave time slows way down. The cave is a "time trap."
All that spawns a number of other issues and builds to pretty interesting and exciting final couple of scenes. All in all a very different kind of movie and also very entertaining.
My wife and I watched it at home on DVD from our public library.
