After losing her mother, father, and sister, Dani decides to go on a Swedish trip with her boyfriend and his college buddies, even though she is still not over the grief of losing her family.

The group travels to a remote commune to partake in a special festival that only happens once every 90 years. Well, the happy hippies turn into scary savages when the festival goes full on cult crazy.

It was a slow burn that took awhile to get to the meat and potatoes, and that’s OK. It reminded me a lot of The Wicker Man, but the original one, not the Nicolas Cage “NOT THE BEES!” remake.

There were some truly disturbing images on display. The acting was mostly spot on except for the boyfriend who looked and sounded a lot like Chris Pratt.
