Berkshire County
Kylie Winters, a bullied and self-loathing teen, reluctantly agrees to babysit at an isolated country mansion on Halloween night. When a small boy in a pig mask appears at the door trick-or-treating, Kylie's night transforms into a horrifying and violent cat-and-mouse game. She must go beyond what she ever thought possible if she and the children are to survive the night.
Why it matters
A tense, claustrophobic slasher that trades big-budget spectacle for raw, intimate terror in a rural Halloween setting.
- Low-fi indie atmosphere channels 80s and 90s home-invasion horrors with a fresh, gritty edge.
- Kylie Winters anchors the film with a surprisingly nuanced performance, grounding the nightmare in relatable teen vulnerability.
- Practical effects and tight pacing keep the violence visceral without tipping into gore for gore’s sake.
- Perfect for fans of minimalist stalk-and-slash fare like *The Strangers* or *Hush* craving a moody, isolated setting.
