Notes

My quick rating - 5,6/10. More of a thriller then horror but the premise is quite frightening. The idea of a satanic cult typically brings of human/animal sacrifices and the like but coaching believers into molesting their children is a bit much. The thing is with this movie, the fact that it may have happened or not is what is explored. Using regressive therapy (which has long since been shunned for embedding false memories into people using suggestion) a man is accused of abusing his daughter. I admittedly should go back and watch this again since I found myself at the end a bit lost ( i was busy migrating to SSD on my laptop) so I could've missed key elements that would make it more clear. Quality performance by Ethan Hake in this film (who I believe is highly underrated). Worth checking out, and for me, checking out again.
