That is what it is about

It all begins with a seemingly insignificant event: somewhere in the Canadian forests, a group of hikers steal a pendant from a dilapidated shack. As a result, a bloodthirsty, vengeful killer monster rises from the ground and wanders unwaveringly through the undergrowth in search of the piece of jewelry. And whoever gets in the monster's way will feel its seething rage. Sometimes very violently...

What you should know

What the actual fuck? Even hardened genre fans will be amazed by this cinematic oddity, which looks like a perverse bastard of FRIDAY THE 13TH and Gus van Sant's ELEPHANT. A calmly meandering splatter firework full of incidentals, which is precisely why it seems so spectacular. Together with the sophisticated visual language and the brilliant kills, IN A VIOLENT NATURE can confidently be described as a new milestone in the history of horror cinema.

Direction

Chris Nash's unique feature film debut is the product of many years of exploring the genre and the unmistakable aesthetics of his role models Gus van Sant and Terrence Malick. The latter are responsible for the film's unusual perspective, which represented a major risk for Nash. But the courage pays off and Nash should soon make a name for himself in the scene with IN A VIOLENT NATURE. Well, if it isn't the birth of a new star in the horror sky!
