Justin (Justin Benson) pulled himself and his brother Aaron (Aaron Moorehead) out of a cult when they were children because he was afraid they were being led to mass suicide. Ten years later, the cult is still there, and Aaron, dissatisfied with his poverty-stricken life, wants to go back. Justin agrees to go for one day so his brother can have closure, but the more time they spend at Camp Arcadia, the weirder things get until Justin begins to wonder if the cult is actually on to something.
This is one of the best takes on eldritch horror I've seen lately. It's simple concepts (circles! time!) but presented in a wholly unique and horrifying way. Even the stuff that's beautiful is terrifying and that's great.
Fortunately, it is streaming on a bunch of different platforms so there are a multitude of chances for you to watch it. It's on Shudder (which I get through Amazon), Kanopy, Tubi, Peacock, Plex, Freevee (still a stupid name), PopcornFlix (whatever that is), Crackle, and Roku. So there's no excuse to miss out.
