The Windmill Plot Synopsis:

Jennifer is an Australian girl on the run from her past who washes up in Amsterdam. In a desperate attempt to stay one step ahead of the authorities, she joins a coach-load of tourists embarking on a tour of Holland's world famous windmills. When the bus breaks down in the middle of nowhere, she and the other tourists are forced to seek shelter in a disused shed beside a sinister windmill where, legend has it, a Devil-worshiping miller once ground the bones of locals instead of grain. As members of the group start to disappear, Jennifer learns that they all have something in common - a shared secret that seems to mark them all for doom.


The Windmill (2016), aka The Windmill Massacre (2016), is directed by Nick Jongerius as a horror drama film. This movie sounds interesting with a bunch of tourists awakening an evil entity while in the Dutch countryside. There is a lot that can be done with this basic plot. The VOD and iTunes release date are on October 25, 2016, with the theatrical release date on October 28, 2016, via XLrator Media. Charlotte Beaumont, Bart Klever, Patrick Baladi, Ben Batt, Fiona Hampton, Tanroh Ishida, Adam Thomas Wright, and Noah Taylor star in The Windmill.
