The premise
John James is a writer; his wife has left him. He moves with his two middle-school children to an isolated house off a dirt road in South Carolina. The property has an Indian burial mound, which fascinates his daughter, Louisa, who's entering puberty.
Horror Vault's take
A recently divorced writer uproots his two children to a remote South Carolina farmhouse, hoping for a fresh start — but the surrounding land holds something old and deeply wrong. His teenage daughter grows increasingly drawn to a mysterious burial mound on the property, and her behavior begins to shift in ways that go far beyond typical adolescent rebellion. Kevin Costner anchors this slow-burning dread-fest as a father watching his family unravel against a backdrop of rural isolation and creeping supernatural menace. What starts as a quiet character study tightens into something far darker and more primal.
