The premise
Young, grieving widow Anna returns to Hel Island to bury her late husband after his suicide. She is cast out by the eccentric locals for being a symbol of bad luck and evil. When children start going missing the island is forced to reckon with its dark history of familial abuse and the terrifying beast-like forces of the sea.
Horror Vault's take
When a grieving widow returns to the remote Hel Island to lay her husband to rest, she finds herself shunned by a tight-knit community quick to blame an outsider for their misfortunes. As children begin to vanish, the island's darkest secrets — buried beneath layers of tradition and shame — begin clawing their way to the surface. Something ancient and monstrous stirs at the edge of the sea, and the line between human cruelty and supernatural terror grows terrifyingly thin.
