A father takes his wife, two sons, and a friend and his daughter on a hiking trip in the woods. After a long search for a spot to set up camp, the father finds a perfect place overlooking a pool.

| Trivia | Produced by The House Of Netherhorror, De Poel (2014) was made for just 200,000 euros (and a whole lot of goodwill from the cast and crew, who gave up part of their wages to complete the project) and shot within three weeks. See more » |
