Darren D @DarrenJD Dec 14 Jenn Wexler's "The Sacrifice Game" was a pleasant little surprise. A well crafted Christmas horror where it's bad enough for students at a boarding school who can't go home for the festive holidays, but they have a murderous satanic cult making their way to the school. Jenn Wexler successfully creates a story that has the correct balance with its tones & confidently flips the narrative with subtle setup & payoff. The story's young leading actresses deserve a lot of credit as Georgia Acken & Madison Baines are integral to the overall story, especially Acken who stole the show.

A quartet of sadistic killers are stalking a small town a few days before Christmas, and end up at a girl's academy where a teacher and two students are staying during the holiday break. When they reveal the reason for their murder spree, the film takes on a more supernatural turn. But once the third act reveal happens, the movie suddenly doesn't know where to go from there, and starts to drag on with the characters wandering dark hallways uttering the same lines over and over. On top of this, one of the young girl characters suddenly is saddled with carrying the bulk of the scenes with lengthy dialogue and speeches that are written way beyond her years, and it just doesn't quite work. I got very impatient waiting for all the inevitable final moments to finally arrive. I can't recommend it, unfortunately, much as I liked the initial setup.

I feel like this movie tried to be many different thing but it has never got there See more Shamil M @RT22286868 Jul 7 I dont really like horror movies that is reboots,remakes that we already know.

I figured out the twist fairly early but it was still great. Everything was pretty spot on. The stand outs were definitely Clara with superb acting skills for being so young, as can be said for Samantha, who were both great in their roles. The dynamic between the group of killers was fantastic. Loved the bits of comedy added in. Definitely worth a watch. See more Christopher H @ChristopherMontanaHaynes 03/29/2025 The Sacrifice game is A surprisingly solid slasher flick. Despite the often-maligned reputation of Canadian horror, this one delivers. The pacing is well-handled, and the juvenile actors hold their own, creating a genuinely tense atmosphere. While the twist ending is somewhat predictable, the journey there is thoroughly enjoyable. If you're a fan of classic slasher films, 'The Sacrifice' is definitely worth a watch. See more Read all reviews
