Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle Cummings' near-wordless collage of tiny vignettes lurches between the profane, the mundane, the insightful, and the simply funny. Feb 5, 2024 Full Review Robert Daniels RogerEbert.com “Satanists, they’re just like us,” could easily be the tagline of writer/director Scott Cummings’ surprisingly meditative documentary. Jan 23, 2024 Full Review Steven Nguyen Scaife Slant Magazine The film isn’t designed to challenge what you think you know about the Church of Satan. Rated: 1.5/4 Jan 22, 2024 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness ... casts off traditional talking head interviews, narration, or any other methods that might entreat audiences to come discover something less familiar, opting instead to use stillness as a confrontational tool between expectation and reality. Rated: 3/5 Apr 7, 2024 Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film The Devil, you might say, is in the details. Rated: 4/5 Mar 24, 2024 Full Review Louisa Moore Screen Zealots Cummings leaves his camera rolling to observe the faithful, which lends a salacious, peeping tom type quality to the documentary. So much of this feels too choreographed, though, and the experimental, avant-garde style left me exhausted and angry. Mar 5, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
