When their son starts acting strangely, a couple unwittingly allow dark and sinister forces into their home, awakening a long-dormant ancient evil rooted deep in the countryside.
VIBE
This is a deeply unsettling folk horror experience, steeped in a melancholic dread that slowly creeps in. It conjures an eerie, oppressive atmosphere, where ancient evils awaken with a quiet, persistent menace. The 1970s setting amplifies the isolation, making for a truly chilling slow-burn descent into the supernatural.
