After being absolutely stunned by how good "Hunter's Blood", another "Deliverance" clone was, I had great expectations for "Rituals". It is however, almost a total misfire. The character development is nonexistent, there is way too much meaningless chattering between the five doctors, and all of the night scenes are so dark due to a lab error, that it is impossible to tell what is going on. If you like watching bad acting, tedious dialog, frequent blackouts of the screen, and an unseen menace, then this is the movie for you. I rate "Deliverance" 7.5, "Hunter's Blood" 6.0, and "Rituals" 4.0, for all of the above reasons. - MERK
