H.P. Lovecraft's The Deep Ones

After suffering the loss of a child, Alex and her husband Petri decide to take a much-needed holiday. Once they've touched down in the seaside city of Oxnard, they are spirited to a gorgeous beachfront bed & breakfast where they are welcomed by the charming if enigmatic host.

What begins as an alluring vacation from their problems soon devolves into a series of bizarre occurrences when the peculiar locals begin to show their true colors. While Alex struggles to keep a grip on her sanity, Petri finds himself increasingly drawn to the mysterious Mr. Marsh and his cabal of scantily-clad companions.

An archaic evil has been summoned from the shores of this quiet crabbing community, one that has designs on Alex. As she is sucked into a maelstrom of murder, mind control and maternal horror, she will have to confront the abyss head on or lose everything she holds dear.

In the wicked vein of Brian Yuzna's Society and the classic Rosemary's Baby, Chad Ferrin's The Deep Ones ably explores the murky depths of fellowship and motherhood through the crimson lens of H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos.
