A bachelor party in the Australian outback takes a turn for the disturbing in the teaser for Jack Clark and Jim Weir's horror thriller Birdeater, which sees a bride-to-be joining her fiancé for a weekend away with his friends.

The teaser doesn't give too much away, but there are some strange masks, chanting, and an uneasy vibe that generally feels more like a cult and less like a friendly pre-wedding celebration.

Shabana Azeez, Mackenzie Fearnley, Ben Hunter, Jack Bannister, Clementine Anderson, Alfie Gledhill, Harley Wilson, and Caroline McQuade star.

Birdeater has its premiere screening at SXSW. A wider release is TBC.
