The Yuletide terror film is coming to Shudder next week.

THE SACRIFICE GAME, director Jenn Wexler’s follow-up to THE RANGER, will begin streaming on Shudder December 8. Written by Wexler and Sean Redlitz, it stars Mena Massoud, Olivia Scott Welch, Georgia Acken, Madison Baines, Chloë Levine and Gus Kenworthy, with makeup effects supervised by Adrien Morot (M3GAN, THANKSGIVING, THE WHALE). The synopsis: “The Blackvale School for Girls, 1971. It’s bad enough that students Samantha [Baines] and Clara [Acken] can’t go home for the holidays, but things take a deadly turn when a gang of cult killers arrives at their doorstep–just in time for Christmas.” See our review of THE SACRIFICE GAME here.
