A Saudi psychological horror, The Sacrifice tells the story of four friends who enter an abandoned haunted house, devastated by a merciless blaze the previous year. Little do they know; they may never be able to leave. Abdullah is one of the townsfolk who hears the unsettling news that a local ten-year-old girl has gone missing, casting an eerie shadow on the town. He finds himself drawn to the haunted house, once owned by his grandfather, curious as to what lies within. Some rumors surrounding the house have been proven, others not, casting an eerie shadow on the town. Whispers from the Eastern Province believe that Jinn haunt the house. Intrigued by the circulating tales, Abdullah concocts a daring plan for an unconventional birthday surprise for his best friend Mohamad. After persuading Mohamad and his friend Nouf, as well as wife Yara, to enter the house, Abdullah embarks on a chilling journey. This begins with a seemingly innocent child-like game of Ouija that's quickly flipped on its head. What began as a thrill has now evolved into a nightmare that will test the fabric of their beings and relationships. As a terrifying presence lurks in the shadows, each of them descends into their deepest fears, the intricacies of their personal lives, their beliefs, and perspectives. They learn that they are truly alone. Through hallucinations and even sacrifice, Abdullah, Yara, Nouf and Mohamad struggle to decipher between reality and the supernatural. Is the malevolence they face the work of a human, the invisible Jinn, or something within themselves? Whatever haunts the house, now haunts them... will it stop the friends from ever leaving?—Almatrood Films
