When attending school like a normal day, Cassie (Chloë Grace Moretz), a 16-year-old woman, sees a plane crashing near her school. After that, mysterious objects look like UFOs.

Not long after that, aliens appeared and began eradicating humans. Extermination or assault occurs in five stages. The first stage turns off all electronic devices and vehicles. The aliens also killed some humans whose devices were damaged in this first stage.

The second stage the aliens make a big wave of water that hits the land. This was done by aliens to eradicate humans on land. The third stage infects humans with viruses. Aliens use birds on Earth. These birds will drop the dirt that contains the virus.

The virus will spread and kill humans. Fellow humans will also infect each other. In the fourth stage, the survivors were brought by military personnel to a shelter. The children were taken to camp, while the adults were taken to barracks.

The barracks residents were then killed by the military. From that incident, Cassie realized that not all humans are real humans. Children who are deliberately saved are then indoctrinated to kill the surviving humans. This is the fifth stage. Cassie and those who survived had to find a way to survive.
