This film presents a truly disturbing scenario, not because of supernatural occurrences, but due to how a town reacts when they discover two young men involved romantically—by subjecting them to something resembling an exorcism. "Ryan" (played by Stacy Clausen) is the attractive, casually styled blond who's grown closer to "Naim" (Joe Bird). The latter seems quite vulnerable and becomes deeply upset when he finds his new relationship complicated by "Hunter" (Jeremy Blewitt) in his backyard. Distraught, he informs his parents. Their response involves a peculiar “deliverance healer” (Nicholas Hope), who performs a ritual with a cigarette lighter, recites questionable religious passages, and declares the boys healed! However, this supposed cure inadvertently unleashes an evil spirit that takes on the form of one of them and is determined to destroy him. At first, the boys are unaware of this threat, but after a brutally violent incident leads to loss, "Naim" discovers his mother has enrolled him in another session—apparently for his own protection. It’s now uncertain how they can distinguish allies from enemies and prevent disaster before it claims one of them. The acting is notably strong, and the film's simple production style effectively creates atmosphere without relying on expensive special effects that would have been out of reach given the budget. Much of the feeling of danger comes from what we imagine, enhanced by skillful camera work that often places characters in unsettling positions, leaving us as unsure as they are about who is genuine. It’s a poignant commentary on the attitudes prevalent in small communities and their tendency to use religion as an escape rather than confront the realities of their children's lives, especially when those children don’t conform. While perhaps some more development of the characters would have been beneficial, it possesses a certain closeness and is worthwhile for ninety minutes, demonstrating that horror, like beauty, is subjective.
