Belly Timber

About This Movie

Belly Timber is a unique entry in the horror genre, set against the rustic backdrop of Indiana's frontier life. It captures this unsettling vibe—life promised so much, yet there’s a palpable dread beneath the surface. The pacing has this slow burn that really adds to the tension, allowing the mundane to twist into something sinister. The performances have this rawness that feels very authentic to the time, and the practical effects, though not over-the-top, really ground the horror in a way that feels visceral. The film explores themes of ambition and the dark sides of human nature, making it distinct from other frontier dramas. It's a layered experience, certainly not your run-of-the-mill horror.
