Blood Creek

In 1936, a German family, the Worthingtons, who are secretly occultists, summon a demon named "The Kallman" to bring them power and bring about a new world order. In 1970s America, brothers Evan and Victor are living a quiet life, but Evan is haunted by the memory of his parents and sister being brutally murdered by their father, who was controlled by the demon. When Victor goes missing, Evan sets out to rescue him, only to find himself confronting the same ancient evil that destroyed his family.
