The Nameless

1999

The mutilated body of a six year old girl is found in a water hole. The girl is identified as the missing daughter of Claudia.

All other methods of identification were removed from her body. Five years later Claudia, now addicted to tranquilizers, receives a phone call from someone claiming to be her daughter, asking for her mother to come find her before 'they' kill her. Other mysterious clues show up, further indicating that Claudia's daughter is indeed still alive, and very much in danger.
