Dark August - Review

Part of Arrow Films' "American Horror Project" anthology. This is yet another psychological horror piece shot in the Vermont countryside, light in terms of plot but heavy on atmosphere, kind of a hybrid between a supernatural revenge thriller and redneck folk horror tale complete with a hippie white witch and a classic expanded seance sequence in the final stretch. What sounds like a horrible mess on paper turns out surprisingly engaging and immersive once you've adjusted to its slow, meditative rhythm and dreamy overall vibe.
