Expect release details soon.

Here’s the skinny so far straight from Magnet’s Facebook page:

BREAKING NEWS! We have just acquired The Sacrament from The House of the Devil & The Innkeepers Director Ti West and Producer Eli Roth (Director – Hostel 1 & 2, Cabin Fever). Starring Joe Swanberg (Director – V/H/S & Drinking Buddies) & AJ Bowen (You’re Next).

The Sacrament (review here)
From acclaimed writer/director Ti West (The House of the Devil, The Innkeepers) and horror master Eli Roth (Hostel, Cabin Fever, The Last Exorcism), The Sacrament follows two Vice media correspondents as they set out to document their friend’s search to find his missing sister. They travel outside of the United States to an undisclosed location where they are welcomed into the world of “Eden Parish,” a self-sustained rural utopia comprised of nearly 200 members. At the centre of this small, religious, socialist community is a mysterious leader known only as “Father.” As their friend reunites with his sister, it becomes apparent to the newcomers that this paradise may not be as it seems. What started as just another documentary shoot soon becomes a race to escape with their lives. Starring Joe Swanberg, AJ Bowen, Kentucker Audley, Amy Seimetz, and Gene Jones.
