The Violent Kind

2010 ·1h 29m · ★ 4.7 (60)

One night at a secluded farmhouse deep in the Northern California woods, a small group of hardened young bikers and their girlfriends are tormented when one of the girls becomes savagely possessed and a gang of "Rockabillies" seemingly from the 1950's descends upon them to collect what is growing inside her.

Why it matters

A chaotic blend of biker bloodbath and occult possession that scrambles genre lines with gleeful abandon.

  • Practical gore effects and raw, unhinged performances fuel a grimy, abrasive atmosphere far from polished horror fare.
  • For fans of boundary-pushing indie horror that mixes grindhouse grit with supernatural dread.
  • A cult-flavored descent into possession horror tangled with ’50s rockabilly menace—think The Devil’s Rejects meets The Exorcist.
  • Not for the fainthearted or narrative purists, but a visceral, unsettling trip for those craving something off the beaten path.
