Sator
Directed by Jordan Graham
Secluded in a desolate forest home to little more than the decaying remnants of the past, a broken family is further torn apart by a mysterious death. Adam, guided by a pervasive sense of dread, hunts for answers only to learn that they are not alone; an insidious presence by the name of Sator has been observing his family, subtly influencing all of them for years in an attempt to claim them.
The demon Sator attempts to claim a family in this dark, unique gem.

cozy Satanism
This is a very slow, understated film without any significant exposition. As such, it's right up my alley, and I enjoyed it. But if that description doesn't appeal to you, you're the wrong audience, and your review doesn't matter.
Only smart people like this movie
I have no intelligible idea what this film thought it was accomplishing. When there's literally no story or message in a slow burning film it's a complete waste of time. Oddity, Lake Mungo, Bagman, and Wakewood are all perfect examples of really good slow burning movies. And why? Because they each had a STORY that was impeccable. You can't get close to putting this picture in the same sentence as those films. Just about everything, about this one was awful. Firstly, whoever did the lighting for this film should be hung from the the nearest tree in those woods. Wayyyyyyyytoo dark for wayyyyyy too long. Nothing comes together in this film. Because there's nothing TO put together. It's amazing how much a script means to a movie. . . .
Having read the synopsis after reading the previous reviews, I liked it, great atmosphere, lovely cinematography, story was interesting. But if I hadn't read the synoposis (and I often don't) I wouldn't have had any idea what was going on.
