Hum

Hum

Seek the void.

Directed by Henry Johnston

202185 min6.4 / 10

A cryptic, occult-tinged thriller that traps its characters in an inexplicable supernatural scenario, prioritizing atmospheric dread and metaphysical mystery over clarity or resolution.

When a mysterious and impenetrable Chest opens for the first time, a young man becomes inexplicably trapped in the woods along with his spiteful mentor and a strange woman with ties to a local cult.
