The King Tide is a 2023 supernatural horror movie where the discovery of a mysterious child with strange powers on a serene island ignites a civil war, as the community splits over whether the child is their savior or a harbinger of doom.
Synopsis: After the mayor of an idyllic island village discovers a child with otherworldly powers washed ashore, the delicate peace of the community fractures. Rumors spread like wildfire – some believe the child to be a divine savior sent to uplift them from isolation, while others fear a harbinger of doom. As zealotry and paranoia take root, alliances shift, and once-trusted neighbors turn to enemies. The village, once a haven of tranquility, spirals into chaos and violence, as rival factions clash, willing to sacrifice anything – even their humanity – for control of the child’s destiny. In the heart of the storm, the mayor must choose between faith, fear, and the growing darkness threatening to consume them all.
