Reviews
|
Variety -
It’s a film that purists might insist isn’t horror in the strictest sense, though this slow-burning investigation of unseemly goings-on at a rural Christian commune is frightening in any genre language.

|
The Hollywood Reporter -
It makes savvy use of the well-worn found-footage format, modulating its creepy scenario with considerable skill.
|
|
Slant Magazine -
With The Sacrament, director Ti West has bitten off more of a premise than his classically modest barebones approach to horror movies can presently chew.
|
|
Time Out London -
As with all of West’s work this is a good-looking, well acted film shot through with moments of real power, but its conventionality is troubling.
|
|
Village Voice -
Restaging the 1978 Jonestown massacre for a present-day suspense movie is by most definitions tasteless, although The Sacrament infuses the past with ghoulish immediacy.
