This is watchable and some of the attempts to recreate 1971 are decent, in fact the film seems partially intended to pay homage to the 1972 version of The Last House on the Left. However, fuzzy coats and greasy hair aside, other than the school's Hammer-esque sitting room The Sacrifice Game isn't at all convincingly 70s. Maybe if you're twelve years old? I can see how being born after 2000 would contribute to this uneven mess of a Christmas horror film.
The other obvious "tribute" I see here is a much more recent film - The Blackcoat's Daughter, but that 2015 supernatural possession horror film blows this mediocre effort completely out of the water.

Ok, so this one had a lot of good things going for it, the acting I genuinely think was good, nice characters that did their job, the annoying ones did annoy you and you did root for the good guys.
The plot is simple but on point, nice flow in the development, yet something was just a little off. It could be that the twist reveals itself perhaps too early, even tho it is on purpose. Maybe we just didn't have the proper time invested in everybody's plan in order to emphasis enough.
Whatever it is, for me The Sacrifice Game is an ok movie but definitely not something to recommend. Even for the Christmas horror list, I'm sure you've been a good girl/boy and deserve better. If I could put my finger on something, I think it's on the fact that it does come off as boring and a little pretentious at times. A lot of unnecessary dialogue that we could have done without and maybe less focus on explicit violence.
So there, I did found a few, flaws, in my opinion.
But if you do enjoy it, I would totally understand. I think it is indeed a well done movie, a lot of effort and passion was put into it, but sadly not my coup of tea.
Cheers!

This film starts out like "The Strangers", segues into "The Blackcoats Daughter", then sort of fizzles out as a possession movie.
This is a Christmas-themed slasher movie with demonic overtones that I could never take seriously. The cast are ok, particularly the two students left at school over Christmas, but the adults are goofy and hard to like.
I think the story was a good idea, but it becomes convoluted near the end when the main characters have to make some important choices. The story loses its momentum in the end. Its bloody and not completely serious, but worth a watch if you like Christmas horror.

I recently watched The Sacrifice Game (2023) on Shudder. The storyline centers around a boarding school where students, left with no holiday plans, find themselves sharing their space with a gang on the run from the law. The challenge arises as the students must survive the presence of these ruthless killers.
Directed by Jenn Wexler (The Ranger), the film stars Mena Massoud (Aladdin), Olivia Scott Welch (Fear Street Part 1), Chloe Levine (Adam), Gus Kenworthy (80 for Brady), and Madison Baines (The Young Arsonists).
The Sacrifice Game proves to be an entertaining modern-day slasher. The film kicks off with a fun opening, establishing an intense tone that comes through with great stab sequences and throat slashes. The movie boasts good blood splatter, clean cinematography, and worthwhile gore. This has a well-selected cast and tremendous villain that keeps your attention. The unique twist at the end adds an extra layer of interest. I'm still not sure if I liked it.
In conclusion, while not the pinnacle of slasher films, The Sacrifice Game is a commendable addition to the genre. With a score of 6/10, I would recommend giving it a watch, at least once, for its contributions to the slasher genre.

Quick review: The opening scene in 'The Sacrifice Game' is a reasonably well done scene. Unfortunately that's about as good as the film gets and it's all downhill from there. Once we get into the school scenes the movie becomes a bit of slug-fest to get through.
It's quite a bizarre movie in that I really don't know who we were supposed to be rooting for. You'll understand this if/when you watch it. I can't remember many movies like this where everything flip flops and you are left with no real protagonist.
Regardless, the film didn't work for me I'm sad to say. It wasn't scary, or funny and I really don't know how seriously it was taking itself. It wasn't obvious. 4/10.
