The premise
In rural farm country, a comic book obsessed serial killer clashes with a straight edge purist over a young boy's fate.
Horror Vault's take
Deep in desolate farm country, a self-styled killer with a warped fixation on comic books raises a young boy in a world defined by brutality and control. When a straight-edge purist crosses paths with this volatile household, a dangerous confrontation over the child's future begins to take shape. Artik is a grim, grounded thriller that trades supernatural frights for the very human horror of learned violence and warped devotion.
