WEEK 44: A HORROR MOVIE
 
Description: A group of friends reunite for a trip to a forest in Sweden, but encounter a menacing presence there stalking them.

Review: At first you think, this is yet another story about a group of people getting lost in the woods. And the comparison with “The Blair Witch Project” is also easily made. However, “The Ritual” gives a different twist to this story and really knows how to scare you.

“The Ritual” tells the story of four friends who go exploring together in the Swedish forests after a fatal accident back home in London. As they head deeper into the woods, they come across the strangest things, including a dead deer hung up high in a tree. When they come across an abandoned cabin in which they find various strange objects, you start thinking about “The Blair Witch Project’, but this turns out to be absolutely not the case. The story takes an entirely unique turn and gives the viewer goosebumps from head to toe.

“The Ritual” is highly recommended and an excellent horror movie. It is one of those hidden gems on Netflix that you should absolutely see.

Rating: 4,5/ 5
