Synopsis

In  the  18th  century  Jonathan  Green undertakes a scientific voyage
from Europe to the east. Having passed through Transylvania he finds
himself  lost  in  a small village surrounded by impassable woods. The
villagers have dug a moat to cut themselves off  from  the  rest  of  the
world  in the belief it will protect them from evil spirits. What they don't
realize is that the evil has made a home in their village  and  diabolical
demons  and creatures are biding their time until it is ready to unleash
themselves upon the world.
