With a title like Bone Lake, two possibilities come to mind. The first is tackled at the top of the latest trailer from Bleecker Street, as one of four vacationers admits he thought the name of this body of water alluded to it being a secluded place where couple could "bone." (Classy.)

The other possibility is less romantic, suggesting that beneath the surface of the picturesque lake, bodies are buried. And considering this is a horror movie, we're thinking why not both?

Sex and death seem to be at the center of Bone Lake. Written by Joshua Friedlander and directed by Mercedes Bryce Morgan, this original horror film begins with two couples who don't know each other, turning up at the same remote lake house one weekend. What was supposed to be a romantic getaway becomes a group hang, where sexual tension and romantic rivalries begin to flare. But the bigger issue seems to be that half of these vacationers are interested in playing a twisted game that could mean life or death.

Maddie Hasson, Alex Roe, Andra Nechita, and Marco Pigossi star.

Bone Lake opens in theaters nationwide on Oct. 3.
