The Ritual

We close down this current series of films curated for us by our annual FoGoween attendees (lovingly dubbed #FoGgoweeners) with David Bruckner's 2018 film THE RITUAL. This chilling story of four friends on an excursion who get lost in the woods and find themselves in the path of an unspeakable and seemingly ageless threat is not only haunting for the ways it challenges us to confront our own lack of bravery, but for the ways in which it can make us think more deeply about the casual ways we ignore our daily habits, particularly when the steady drum of choosing a poor choice in the small things may leave us ill-equipped to make the right choice when a truly big thing comes along.

Also featuring an EPIC patron segment in which Nathan and Reed count down each of their personal TOP TEN HORROR FILMS of 2022, this is an episode we hope you'll greatly enjoy. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!
