Description:

A scientist living in an apartment complex kills a girl and uses acid to destroy her internal organs, and then kills himself.

Soon, other people in the complex begin showing signs of carrying the parasites, spreading the things through wanton orgiastic abandon, and the complex begins suffering an attrition problem.
