Ziggy, who, along with her four friends, journeys out on a camping trip to a picturesque remote forest. But trespassing into an off-limits area, they awaken an uncanny terror in the woods… and a ravenous hunger from within the Earth. Soon, the ground itself is trying to swallow anything and anyone it touches and now the group have nowhere to run as every step they take could be their last.

Filmed in Oregon.
The movie’s production team includes vet SFX supervisor Tony Gardner (The Blob), whose in-camera work will bring the malevolent forces that lurk in the forest to life.
Written/directed by Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyer (Starry Eyes, Pet Sematary remake), who were quoted saying: "The Swallow is a tonal throwback to the type of horror that made us excited about this genre in the first place. Something pure, visceral and absolutely harrowing. Our hope is that it will make you never look at the ground the same way again."
Described as "an entertaining riot from start to finish – an ingenious, innovative spin on the survival thriller, and a visceral, skin-crawling feast for genre hounds."
