There’s plenty of eerie ambience in the preview for the upcoming supernatural chiller.

Scream Factory and Shout! Studios will bring THE POND to VOD and digital platforms February 23. Directed by Petar Pasic, it stars Marco Canadea and Leslie Kunz; the synopsis: “THE POND is the story of an anthropologist on the verge of an apocalyptic discovery who begins to descend into madness, as his hallucinations reveal something sinister is after him. Set in an Balkan village rich with supernatural dread, the film’s evocative cinematography creates an ominous, slow-burn atmosphere that’s sure to linger with the viewer long after the film has ended.”
