Overview

Two journalists set out to document their friend's journey to reunite with his estranged sister. They track her to an undisclosed location where they are welcomed into the remote world of "Eden Parish," a self-sustained rural utopia composed of nearly two hundred members and overseen by a mysterious leader known only as "Father." It quickly becomes evident to the newcomers that this paradise may not be as it seems. Eden Parish harbors a twisted secret. What started as just another documentary shoot soon becomes a fight for survival.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A found-footage descent into a cult's hidden world that transforms methodically from discomfort to psychological horror. The claustrophobic escalation trades jump scares for the creeping realization that escape may be impossible.
