While I think real life is much more frightening than any horror movie can ever capture, The Sacrament tries its best to relate to the horror that was the Jonestown Massacre. It's interesting to see the film morph from an initial "creep hippie vibe" onto full-on suicidal cult and "The Father" is truly a more frightening figure than Freddy or Jason could ever be. Ti West usually disappoints me and while this isn't a home run, I liked it a little better than his other forays into the so-called "mumblegore" genre.
