A competently made documentary-style folk horror. This film is very clearly influenced by the Jonestown Massacre incident where a cult leader convinced people to commit mass suicide. I don't think the film itself is really anything that special but it's still entertaining and thought provoking nonetheless. As a found footage, it suffers from some of the issues that most films of the sub-genre do but what makes it horrifying in a very real way is when you taking into consideration that it's based on real events. Even if you can see something coming from miles away, it doesn't make this film any less unsettling. There's a great escalation of suspense and some truly horrific moments which left me uneasy the whole time. Amazing performances from everyone involved, especially Gene Jones as a charismatic and scary cult leader.
