REVIEW

"The House of the Devil" and "The Innkeepers" establish the name of a Ti West as one of the horror directors with a strong taste of old school not everyone is happy with the way it presents a slow burn horror show in classic packaging, but I am wrong One of the segments in the anthology of the giants ABC's of Death is arguably disappointing. Then the latest one is The Sacrament, which is also produced in a big name in the world of another horror Eli Roth.

Unusually, The Sacrament takes a horror found footage approach that is trending in style, a style that Ti West has never done before. Its contents are also very different from most other West filmography. Centered on the investigation by Patrick (Kentucker Audley) with colleagues Sam (AJ Bowen) and Jake (Joe Swanberg) to an agricuristic congregation named "Eden Parish" in the interior of Guyana, where Patrick's sister Caroline (Amy Seimetz) Settled after leaving the drug rehab center. Eden Parish, looking so peaceful and serene, was led by a fat old man who was called "father" (Gene Jones) by his loyal followers. In his investigation, Patrick and his friends slowly begin to discover that there is something strange behind every blissful joy of his congregation, something dark and terrible.

The Sacrament has reminded me more of one of the craziest segments in the V / H / S anthology sequel called "Safe Haven". Yes. They both talked about an investigation of a religious sect in an isolated place, led by a charismatic congregation leader, but the Sacrament takes a more realistic approach, such as borrowing the true story of many events about the doctrine of horrible heresies such as the one Most famous is the "Jonestown Massacre" event that occurred in 1978 ago.

But do not be too hopeful if The Sacrament will end as safe as Safe Haven. As I said, West tries to bring the horror as realistic as possible even before the finish of his camera moves to be a bit seductive like most mock horror diseases. So The Sacrament may not really be a pure horror, but there is a gripping atmosphere of its own that makes the audience feel uncomfortable. There is a sense of swaying when looking at how the parish of Eden Parish exudes a strange happiness, there is an invisible terror when the "Father" played by Gene Jones appears neatly accompanied by excessive cheers from his followers.
