Open Up And Let The Devil In

Overview

During the Civil War in 17th-Century England, a small group of deserters flee from a raging battle through an overgrown field.

Crossing a vast mushroom circle, which provides their first meal, the group quickly descend into a chaos of arguments, fighting and paranoia, and, as it becomes clear that the treasure might be something other than gold, they slowly become victim to the terrifying energies trapped inside the field.
