The Windmill Massacre

The Windmill Massacre (2016)

Jennifer, an Australian girl on the run from her past, turns up in Amsterdam and, in a desperate attempt to blend in, joins a coach-load of tourists on a tour of Holland's old windmills. When the bus breaks down in the middle of nowhere, she and the other tourists are forced to seek shelter in a disused shed beside a sinister windmill where a devil-worshiping miller once ground the bones of locals instead of grain. As members of the group start to disappear, Jennifer learns that they all have something in common – a shared secret that seems to mark them all for doom.

Curiosità

The Windmill Massacre, known as The Windmill in the US, is a 2016 English-language Dutch slasher film directed by Nick Jongerius. Charlotte Beaumont stars as an Australian fugitive in the Netherlands who joins a tour group to escape extradition. After their bus breaks down by a windmill reputed to be haunted by an avenging demon, the tourists begin mysteriously dying. It premiered at the London FrightFest Film Festival in August 2016 and received a limited theatrical release in the US in October.

Production

Nick Jongerius grew up near a windmill and said he always found them creepy. The film was based on a concept trailer that proved popular on YouTube. Once he had funding, however, Jongerius rethought many of the themes and changed their focus. Jongerius cited Brian De Palma as an influence on his filmmaking, though he said he did not realize the extent of the influence until after completing The Windmill Massacre.
