What is the plot of ‘The Tank’?

In 1978, Ben Adams and his wife Jules inherit an abandoned coastal property from Ben's recently deceased mother. The family wonders why they were never informed about the strange abandoned property that looms like an eerie relic over land for over forty years and includes a stunning private cove and a beach.

Curiosity drives Jules to look for answers all around the house, and Ben goes to repair a buried water tank, which is how they accidentally unleash an ancient, long-dormant monster that has tormented the entire region from generation to generation, including Ben's ancestors.
