June is generally a quiet month on the platforms. Regular programming is over for some, and the vacations are upon us.
But it seems that Shudder doesn’t live in the same reality. There’s a great line-up on the program for this hot month of June.
Let’s take a look!

Sensing an ominous aura surrounding the burial site, the team opts to exhume and relocate the ancestral remains immediately. But as something much darker emerges, they soon discover what befalls those who dare to mess with the wrong grave.
