40 Acres
Hailey Freeman and her family are the last descendants of African American farmers who settled in rural Canada after the Civil War. In a famine-decimated near future, they now struggle to safeguard their farm, as they make one last stand against a vicious militia hell-bent on taking their 40 Acres.
Primarily a survival thriller/drama about militia conflict and social hardship. The premise does not foreground fear-inducing horror mechanisms (supernatural, grotesque, body horror, pervasive dread) as its core identity, though some tense elements may evoke fear.
Best for viewers looking for a scary horror movie.
