Vier
Flooding in Krumau am Kamp: three infant bodies, two girls and a boy, are found in the basement of the Trummler family's farm, which has long been uninhabited. The children were suffocated immediately after birth and buried on the spot. A dark reputation precedes the Trummlers – the word "cursed" is used more than once, after the daughter's disappearance without a trace...
Why it matters
A brooding folk horror that unearths generational trauma beneath rural superstition and decay.
- Delivers a slow-burn atmosphere steeped in Austrian village isolation and whispered curses.
- Excavates the weight of family secrets through muted performances and unsettling silences.
- For fans of European folk horror who savor dread born from landscape and lineage, not jump scares.
- Practical effects and naturalistic cinematography amplify the oppressive sense of a place haunted by more than ghosts.
