The Island is a horror-comedy film about Zora (played by Angelie Simone), a young black woman, who discovers that her father has been murdered during her family's luxury vacation in Caribbean. Suddenly the vacation they are on becomes increasingly sinister and Zora doesn't know who to trust outside of her family, especially the hotel owner Martisha (played by Camille Corbett), the person responsible for Maurice's death.

With the help of her surviving family members, Zora must save herself from dying at the hands of the beautiful, Martisha and avoid the mythical obstacles throughout the island. During this journey, Zora learns that she is even more powerful than she thought. Consider it to be Get Out, Meets Wickerman, Meets Love Witch, with sprinklings of Midsommar.
