Longtime friends pass the time at an isolated cabin telling scary stories to each other, but it's not long before they find themselves embroiled in their own terrifying scenario that's all too real in Tales from the Lodge. Ahead of the horror comedy's world premiere at the SXSW Film Festival, we've been provided with a new clip, images, and a poster for the latest film from writer/director Abigail Blackmore.

Tales from the Lodge will make its world premiere on March 13th at the SXSW Film Festival.
