Harvest Lake
Five friends fall under the seductive influence of a libidinous, otherworldly presence that threatens to change their lives forever in this strange and erotic new film from director Scott Schirmer and producer Brian K. Williams.
Why it matters
A sultry, slow-burning dive into supernatural seduction that blends folk horror vibes with mid-2010s indie atmosphere.
- Scott Schirmer’s direction leans into mood over plot, crafting an unsettling, almost hypnotic tone that’s part eerie campfire tale, part erotic fever dream.
- Practical effects and shadowy visuals evoke classic regional horror, grounding the film’s otherworldly seduction in tactile dread.
- Perfect for fans of folk horror’s ritualistic unease mixed with the late-night creepiness of DTV cult staples.
- Not for those craving tight narratives—its languid pacing and ambiguous storytelling demand patience and a taste for atmospheric ambiguity.
