'The Harvesting' Promises Supernatural Chills on DVD and VOD Now...

A Film That Plays on the Evil Not Only in an Unknown Force but Within All of Us

A house in the countryside, plenty of land and room for the kids to run around, what could be wrong with that?. In the grand tradition of many a horror movie comes 'The Harvesting' a tale about a family surrounded by evil on a country break. Escape to the country indeed...

Horror is the one genre that never seems to go away and for that i'm extremely glad. I mean, without it i'd have to face the shocking reality of my everyday life (lol)...or perhaps rent a comedy or two who knows.

Can the whole family escape?

The Plot

To escape their marital problems and for a change of pace, a family travels from their home in Philadelphia to spend the summer within the rolling hills of the countryside.

But on the eve of the summer solstice a malevolent evil presence exposes their darkest secrets and threatens to turn them against each other with murderous intent.

They must find a way to break free before the demonic hold consumes them.

I like the idea of this movie, it seems to play on the evil not only in an unknown force but within all of us. Let's face it, we conduct ourselves in a civilized manner in public but if this was to be stripped from us we'd be shocked by what we said and did. Put this in a demonic horror context and it's going to make for some unholy shenanigans.

All hell breaks loose

You should be scared

I can feel the goosebumps rising on the back of my neck, I cannot wait to get a hold of this movie. I love the fact they've made a movie set within an Amish society as they're arguably one of the last 'pure' communities on Earth and it seems perfect for a supernatural setting. The Amish don't have electricity and don't even benefit from modern medicine in some cases so they simply rely on faith to get them through their lives. Something that society has lost with the rise of digital tech and something perhaps we've forgotten at our own peril...

It's here.....

The Harvester is Out Now on DVD and VOD and looks set to keep you from straying into the countryside for the foreseeable future. I mean nothing scary happens in the middle of nowhere right?
