Sacrifice is the story of consultant surgeon, Tora Hamilton, who moves with her husband, Duncan, to the remote Shetland Islands, 100 miles off the north-east coast of Scotland. Deep in the peat soil around her new home, Tora discovers the body of a young woman with rune marks carved into her skin and a gaping hole where her heart once beat. Ignoring warnings to leave well alone, Tora uncovers terrifying links to a legend that might never have been confined to the pages of the story-books.

My quick rating - 4,7/10. This is a very nice looking movie by the locale it was shot, but beyond that it is very short on substance. The mystery part of the body that is discovered is the main focus and the whole story behind it. Well, that about sums it up as this is far more drama then anything horrific. The acting is adequate and believable but this just falls into a flick to kill time but surely nothing to go and find. Solid yet boring sums it up, nothing I would watch again, which is kind of funny, since I had seen the last half hour of this movie a while back and never knew what it was. Well, now I have seen the whole thing and don't feel like I missed anything when it popped on cable one night and I left it on until the end.
