Bill, his two children and their mother-in-law move to an isolated cottage in snowy Norwegian splendor. The parents force their enthusiasm, the daughter sulks about her lost friends, and the son soon realizes the obvious: there's something in the barn.

Magnus Martens leaves Norwegian television and film after fifteen years of loyal service, heading for the USA. He first worked on two episodes of the best season of Banshee, then moved on to Marvel (Luke Cage, Agents of SHIELD) and The Walking Dead extended universe. There's Something in the Barn is the culmination of his career, straddling his two identities and territories. The film joins the ranks of the likes of Krampus, Rare Exports and Violent Night, and endorses the technical term Christmasploitation: goracious horse-riding, where the snow is soaked in blood, but always in a festive spirit. The ideal Christmas entertainment for any self-respecting family of psychopaths.
