I felt like it was a horror movie that told a scary story but was not really scary (at least to me). A lot of people making that style of movie and a lot of them don't work, but this one did it. It's a horror story that's not scary but its a great tone of bad people getting what they deserve in the most deserving way. The two actors who played the little girls in the movie were captivating, kept me interested in what their fates would be. If Shudder is keeping count they had a lot of misses but this hit makes up for all that. Went in not expecting much but I got so much from it. Absolutely worth the watch!

Private school for girls , school holidays some students stay behind then something starts happening. This movie is creepy crazy but good and interesting. Dialogue is good.villain is very good character. I love the plot twist. Rituals performed. Some of the deaths occurred ,where unexpected which too me by suprise had fun watching that. Very scary and horrific and acters where very good script was very strong making the movie strong. Sets and contracts looking very Horror. Good holiday movie horror film. Music is very good leading me to a scene very over the top the movie is very captivating .

1) There are two kind of horror movies. The scary ones and the ones which can be called : "A fun ride". I like both of them. THE SACRIFICE GAME is not scary but it is a fun ride. Enjoy it for what it is. I appreciated the fact that there were no cheap jump scares. Characters were not making stupid decisions either. Everything felt natural, at least for a horror movie. Ok, a specific character made an absurd decision towards the ending but it is not something unusual for this genre. 2) Another positive here : There were likeable characters. And the villains were really evil and you were rooting for their downfall. I can't stand watching a horror movie in which every character is disgusting or unlikeable and you kinda root for the villain to kill them all. Things are pretty clear here. Of course, there is a big twist but still, it made this movie more interesting. 3) Acting is above average for a horror movie. Georgia Acken can be a great actress in the future, her role was the most demanding. Of course, this is not the most convincing and realistic movie of the world and viewers won't feel anxiety and agony, but there is no need for nitpicking. It's a horror movie. 4) This is not a MUST WATCH movie, it's not scary neither exciting and if you think about it, you will find a lot of flaws. (For example, the whole thing about the photographs and a specific person..). Lower your expectations and you will enjoy it, some reviewers are unnecessary harsh. This is a movie that respect its viewers.

I'm giving this 8/10 because I'm so amazed by 2 factors: 1- the acting. Mena Massoud surprised me as a villain after I saw him in the (not bad but not good movie) Aladdin. And the girl playing Clara, if I don't miss recall her name is Georgia Acker (or Acken?) She did an amazing job. Certainly a dancer and for a moment I thought that it could be M3GAN ... She's not, I checked Het delivery was great, her physical performance was incredible, she made a formidable and unforgivable villain. She took all my attention and can't wait to see more of her. 2- the probably original plot twist, with a satisfying end. I said probably because it kind of reminded me (in a way) to Let the Right One In. The good: plot and acting. The bad: period setting was not very clear. The awesome: Great lead villain and ending Recommend it always, my type of movie. Watch at your own risk, but you must watch to give a calification.

I thought the movie was really good. The first plot twist was kind of predictable. The storyline for me was good. Some of the stabbing scenes were kind of unbelievable. The movie in my eyes was put together good. The ear scene Reservoir Dogs did it much better then this movie did. There wasn't any unnecessary nudity which is good. I hate when filmakers do that so they can get people to watch. The ending was a little blah. Another thing is that i totally forgot it was Christmas time halfway through the movie. Overall this movie is worth watching I would definitely recommend this movie to a friend.

The premise here is pretty straight forward. A Manson-style cult takes over a private girls school on Christmas Eve, as they seek to enact an ancient demonic ritual, through a series of murders. Because it's Christmas...only one teacher and a couple of students are present. Making it relatively easy for the twisted gang of killers to force their way in, and get what they want. Their next victim. The one they need to complete the ritual...and bring forth the demon. However...things don't exactly go as planned once it's complete. And it's at this point when the tables start to turn. The film exudes a relatively dark atmosphere, and has a decent amount of tension. But the twist is pretty obvious (as a series of incidents strewn throughout the opening foreshadow it). Fortunately, the film isn't broken because of it. Good character development manages to salvage it from being a complete bust...and keep you engaged, so as to see how things play out. After the "twist" kicks in...it takes a bit of a lackluster turn. But ends up redeeming itself in the end. Not a bad little Christmass horror, at all. 6 out of 10.
