I must admit that I was lured in by the movie's cover, it's title and its interesting enough synopsis. And of course the fact that I hadn't already seen this 2020 movie also made me want to watch it. And wow, "Sacrilege" was a swing and a miss. In fact, you could say that the movie's title actually summarize what this movie actually is. The storyline told in "Sacrilege", as written by writer and director David Creed was just about as interesting as reading the phonebook from cover to cover. The storyline and script here just was unfathomably bland and uneventful. As for the acting in "Sacrilege", well it was mediocre at best. So you will not find yourself in for an evening of Shakespearian thespian performances here, no, not even remotely. Some of the ladies that were in the movie just put on performances that made me cringe and curl my toes in disbelief. While the storyline was devoid of anything overly interesting or captivating, then the movie was also lacking things that were even remotely scary. This movie was, essentially just about a group of people that came to crash hard on some bad hallucinatory weed, and then writer and director David Creed tried to lace it with some religious undertones. For a horror movie then "Sacrilege" was a bland and boring movie. My rating of "Sacrilege" lands on a two out of ten stars. I managed to sit through the entire ordeal, hoping that the movie would become better along the way. But it just never did. And the ending of the movie just felt like a slap in my face for having sat through about an hour and a half of absolute boredom.

I don't know who's giving this film good reviews..it was awful. The bar for British horror is clearly not set very high going by how well received it been by some reviewers. The film has a very promising opening sequence but it very quickly goes downhill with woefully written dialogue, not the best acting (though how much of that is down how the cast were directed to perform) and a predictable sparse over-trodden storyline. The main cast are all 'hot' young women with little thought taken to giving them any kind of character other than the superficial female stereotypes. I take it that this is the first movie from this director/screenwriter so I will cut them some slack (I gave two stars rather than the one it really merits) but they really need to do their background work on how women actually behave and interact with each other if they ever want their films to be taken seriously. It would be a passable movie if made in 1974 but not 2020. Come on get your act together you can do better than this...

That this film made it to the cinema was sacrilege!!! My OH said if we had been watching at home he would have turned it off.

All the ingredients for a standard horror...... a trip to a spooky house....no phone signal etc etc. although not actually that scary (fortunately) A few jumps. Nice to see an all female lead cast (ensemble!?) I saw this in the cinema and it sounded amazing. Some really nice oldskool scenes where the girls get freaked out and or killed in various ways. Standard. Not bad.
