Life on the American frontier isn't all it's cracked up to be, especially if your homestead was built on a secluded prairie where demons are known to lurk at night.

Check out the official trailer for "The Wind," a supernatural-tinged atmospheric western horror that stars Caitlin Gerard (Insidious: The Last Key, American Crime) as a resilient frontierswoman living in a remote cabin who finds herself being targeted by a mysterious, terrifying entity.

Directed by first-time feature filmmaker Emma Tammi and written by Teresa Sutherland, the indie thriller also stars Julia Goldani Telles (The Affair, Slender Man), Ashley Zukerman (Designated Survivor), Miles Anderson (Baskets), and Dylan McTee (Sweet/Vicious).

"The Wind," which premiered at TIFF last year to mostly good reviews, will be released in theaters and on VOD beginning April 5th.

synopsis:
An unseen evil haunts the homestead in this chilling, folkloric tale of madness, paranoia, and otherworldly terror.

Lizzy (Caitlin Gerard) is a tough, resourceful frontierswoman settling a remote stretch of land on the 19th-century American frontier. Isolated from civilization in a desolate wilderness where the wind never stops howling, she begins to sense a sinister presence that seems to be borne of the land itself, an overwhelming dread that her husband (Ashley Zukerman) dismisses as superstition.

When a newlywed couple arrives on a nearby homestead, their presence amplifies Lizzy's fears, setting into motion a shocking chain of events. Masterfully blending haunting visuals with pulse-pounding sound design, director Emma Tammi evokes a godforsaken world in which the forces of nature come alive with quivering menace.
