Following its Sundance premiere (read our review), Bloody Disgusting has the first clip from A24’s next horror title, The Hole in the Ground, about a child who vanishes into a sinkhole only to return…different.

Said to be in the vein of The Babadook, Lee Cronin’s horror film arrived today exclusively on DIRECTV, before opening in limited theaters on March 1, 2019.

In the film,

“Sarah and her young son Chris move to a new home in the Irish countryside, next to a forest that hides an enormous sinkhole. One night, Chris vanishes, and when he reappears he seems unharmed and unchanged. But, as his behavior grows increasingly disturbing, Sarah begins to fear that the boy who has returned may not be her son at all.

“The Hole in the Ground weaves suspense, terror, and supernatural folklore into a richly evocative story about the primal fears of motherhood.”

Seána Kerslake (A Date For Mad Mary) stars with James Cosmo, Kati Outinen, and James Quinn Markey.
