After a young American backpacker goes missing in Europe, a group of journalists link his disappearance to a remote village in Poland. They travel there hoping to get the story, but as they unravel the secrets behind this mysterious village, they are suddenly pursued by hostile locals. Unable to escape, they soon become the next victims of ritualistic human sacrifice. Forced into the gruesome reality of true survival horror, the journalists soon discover that this village hides a much darker secret than they could ever imagine.

This was awesome, truly a hidden gem. I am a sucker for "evil cult" movies, and this more than satisfied my needs. I'm looking to buy it as soon as I can.

Thought it was alright. Definitely gave me an evil dead vibe to it. I do recommend people to see it. They probably would like it a lot more then I did.

I liked this. I'm a big fan of movies about cults, too. I enjoyed the cast.

Overall this one turned out to be quite an enjoyable if slightly flawed effort. One of the better aspects to this one is the rather impressive and enjoyable atmosphere throughout here, which makes for a lot of impressive moments within here. The initial walk-through of the group of the village is quite impressive as there's a large amount of creepy visuals that are rightly observed to be their traditional way of life in such a situation and no moralizing is done anyway which is a nice touch while also really getting this going for the big reveal here in the revelation of the fog cloud surrounding the tree-line that's quite eerie as well. Those later scenes in the fog-cloud are highly creepy as well with the obscured trees and thick fog providing the perfect blanket for the reveal of the statue which is quite scary and chilling as well as the ensuing marks to get away that generates some fine action in the woodland chase and eventual escape as well as the brawling with the cult members and finally the film's first rather impressive scene in the sacrificial room. These chilling scenes and the eventual escape, resulting in the finale's absolutely delirious amount of chases through the woods and into the house on the outskirts, the demonic possession that follows the utterly chilling tactic of the deformed demons in her mind and finally into the big confrontation with the group at the end which makes for a lot of good, creepy images and ideas strewn throughout this one. Along with the gory kills, these positives are enough to hold off the few minor flaws in this one. The biggest one being the first half spending way too much time on ensuring that the whole trip is set-up for them to be cut off from help, with the errant cover-story and secrecy surrounding it all just filling up time needlessly by hammering it home when it's already been established about that fact. Also, the fact that this continues a long, long trend of films in which the entirety of the events could've easily been avoided had something useful been passed along to the participants instead of simply kept secret does render this one with a mildly irritating factor, but otherwise this one was highly enjoyable.
Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup?

Some people are like slinkies: not good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one falls down the stairs.
