Antlers

• Drama
• Horror
• Mystery

Set within the decaying, economically-strained landscape of a rural Oregon mining town, *Antlers* unfolds as a deeply unsettling folk horror rooted in Native American mythology and the cyclical trauma of intergenerational hardship. The film distinguishes itself not through jump scares, but through a creeping, melancholic atmosphere of pervasive dread as a dedicated teacher and her troubled sheriff brother slowly uncover the horrifying truth behind a withdrawn young student’s increasingly disturbing behavior. This isn’t a monster movie focused on spectacle, but a somber exploration of survival and the suffocating weight of inherited pain, visualized through a haunting interpretation of the Wendigo legend – a creature born of desperation and embodying the consequences of violating ancient traditions. The narrative avoids simplistic heroism, presenting characters grappling with their own personal demons while confronting a darkness that threatens to consume them and their closely-knit community.
