Quick Hit

Secret Ceremony has a clean hook and a premise stronger than the execution, which keeps it well below the line. A decent premise gets left on the table.

Full Take

There’s a real hook here, but the follow-through decides the damage. When the rhythm drags or the trick is obvious, it starts leaking air fast. British genre discipline gives the film a cleaner shape than many of its pulp peers. The set pieces are what matter, and this one gets some mileage out of them. That keeps it stuck at BAD.
