About

While exploring the neighboring woods, 13-year-old John discovers an unfinished bunker — a deep hole in the ground. Seemingly without provocation, he drugs his affluent parents and older sister and drags their unconscious bodies into the bunker, where he holds them captive. As they anxiously wait for John to free them from the hole, the boy returns home, where he can finally do what he wants.
An eerie, quiet stillness replaces typical slasher tropes when a young boy turns a suburban backyard into a psychological prison. This unsettling domestic nightmare focuses on the chillingly calm logic of a child who decides his family belongs underground.
