Night Thunder

It is 1865 and as the Civil War rages across the land, an 11-year-old boy awakens to the sound of thunderous drumbeats. Four days later, his mother is dead, and a strange cult of religious wanderers have been brutally murdered by the terrified local farmers. In 1995, a gnarled sycamore tree planted over their graves is uprooted by bulldozers--and evil arises.
