The Sacrament Reviews
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
The aim and the conceit distract from director Ti West's execution.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
Gives enough unsettling atmosphere and upsetting gut-level shock that this viewer didn't mind too much all the stuff he wasn't getting ...
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
West's found-footage structure doesn't always entirely make sense, but it's easy to forgive "The Sacrament" its flaws.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
Everything that happens is what you'd expect, and the choice of subject and the modifications West has made to the generic conventions don't add much to the suspense or thrills.
Film.com
Jordan Hoffman
It's not just bad, it's infuriating.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
With The Sacrament, director Ti West has bitten off more of a premise than his classically modest barebones approach to horror movies can presently chew.
The Dissolve
Scott Tobias
[...] While The Sacrament affirms West's talent and versatility, the film's basic conceit is a failure of taste, alluding so heavily to the 1978 Jonestown massacre that it feels like a ghoulish recreation of history.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
The first half is a cautiously dread-inducing tour de force... The second half, however, when all hell breaks loose a little too quickly, is the disappointment.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
The Sacrament may not be a good movie, but it has enough virtues - enough gripping, well-put-together moments - that it made me reconsider my opinion of West as a director.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Shifts from the unnerving to the hollow after it becomes evident that Mr. West is more interested in showing how his characters die than how they lived.
Village Voice
Rob Staeger
The Sacrament infuses the past with ghoulish immediacy.
Hollywood Reporter
David Rooney
A bone-chilling genre piece about religious fanaticism taken to deadly extremes.
Paste Magazine
Tom Meek
The found footage format becomes cumbersome and feels disingenuous as cameras are diligently placed by those handling them even during dump-and-run moments.
Variety
Guy Lodge
Purists might insist isn't horror in the strictest sense, though this slow-burning investigation of unseemly goings-on at a rural Christian commune is frightening in any genre language.
Oregonian
Marc Mohan
Ti West's found-footage style horror film is a cut above the genre's norm, with an uncompromising, horrific, finale.
Fat Guys at the Movies
Kevin Carr
The Sacrament is a chilling film that looks at the darkest side of human nature and what is truly capable in the hands of evil people.
Contactmusic.com
Rich Cline
Yet another found-footage thriller, this chilling horror film at least has some solid roots as a fictionalised version of real events.
Common Sense Media
Jeffrey M. Anderson
West is such an inventive, powerful filmmaker that he still manages to establish some interesting spaces, even with the clunky hand-held camerawork.
Movies.com
Dave White
Ti Wet takes the retro anxiety of 1978's Jonestown Massacre and slaps on a fresh coat of creepiness. Not that it needed much.
AV Club
A.A. Dowd
West essentially re-creates a real-life atrocity, beat for awful beat, for the sake of some second-rate thrills.
