The first trailer for new folk horror Starve Acre is here, and it’s suitably chilling.

It sees the pair play a couple who must navigate a sudden tragedy involving their young son.

As they come to grips with their new reality, strange and supernatural evils start haunting their isolated home.

Possession, a creepy tree, gore, and a tense soundtrack all haunt the terrifying first trailer.

If that wasn’t all, there’s also another trailer (viaNerdist) that looks even more retro.

“That was something totally unexpected.

Feels like a film from the 70’s.

Plus a great cast too,” writes one reaction.
