'One of scariest films of 2019' has just landed on Netflix

There's a creepy new movie available now on Netflix that has been described as the "one of the scariest horror films of 2019".

Irish film The Hole In The Ground received positive reviews when it was shown at the Sundance Film Festival earlier in the year before a cinema release during the summer.

However, now the film has arrived on streaming giant Netflix, and a whole new audience are being scared by it, reports The Mirror.

Directed by Lee Cronin, the movie follows a single mother who moves to a remote new home in the woods but soon finds her young son behaving oddly.

Things get really sinister when they come across a mysterious woman on the road and a massive sink hole nearby.

Horror fans have been watching and taking to Twitter to give their personal reviews of the movie.

One viewer tweeted: "The Hole in the Ground on Netflix was a nice little supernatural horror movie (mother and son move to the countryside and the son starts behaving oddly after going to the woods) I watched last night. A few pretentious camera shots (filming the top of a cup of tea) but recommended"

Another wrote: "Saw The Hole In The Ground on Netflix last night - a proper Irish horror with great central performances, beautifully shot with a really atmospheric score. Check it out!"

Meanwhile, one fan said: "UK FOLLOWERS! THE HOLE IN THE GROUND is on UK Netflix! It's in my top 10 favourite movies this year! Go in blind and trust me, its excellent"

Another fan wrote: "Highly recommend @curleecronin ’s fantastic The Hole in the Ground, which landed on Netflix today! One of my favourite film makers and the best cinema experience I’ve had this year"

Finally, another Twitter user said: "THE HOLE IN THE GROUND could be one of scariest horror films of 2019 - from it's freakish audio and chilling visuals to the wonderful and beguiling Seána Kerslake and her outstanding co-star James Quinn LEE CRONIN has delivered another Irish Horror Gem"
