Does this clip from Damien Power’s Killing Ground scare you?

A month ago, we shared a trailer for writer/director Damien Power's Australian survival thriller KILLING GROUND, which IFC Midnight will be releasing in theatres and On Demand on July 21st. With the release coming up in less than two weeks, we've now gotten our hands on a minute and a half long clip from the film.

Starring Harriet Dyer, Ian Meadows, Aaron Pedersen, and Aaron Glenane, KILLING GROUND has the following synopsis: 

A couple’s romantic camping trip becomes a desperate fight for survival in this ultra-raw, unhinged kill ride. In need of a break from the pressures of their life in the city, Sam (Dyer) and Ian (Meadows) head to a remote beach for a weekend getaway. When they come across an abandoned campsite, with no trace of its occupants, they’re concerned. When they discover a lone, traumatized child nearby, they’re scared. And when they encounter two local weirdos, they’re in for a hell of a bad time. Unfolding in an innovative, time-scrambling structure, Killing Ground delivers both nerve-shredding suspense and gut-punching realism.

In the clip below, a character has an uncomfortable interaction with one of the aforementioned "local weirdos", who clearly gets a lot of pleasure from scaring people. And probably does much worse than just scare them.

KILLING GROUND definitely has my attention, and something that makes it especially troubling to me is the presence of the small child who can be seen in the clip. Power is sure to get viewers even more emotionally wrapped up in his movie by dropping a little kid into the middle of this dangerous situation.

Check out the clip for now, then find out what that little kid's fate is when KILLING GROUND hits screens big and small on the 21st.
