About: Psychology major, Eric Peterson has just landed the opportunity of a lifetime. To secure his dream job, Eric needs only provide a last minute paper to appease his superiors. As he prepares for graduation, he encounters a mysterious find left behind by a roommate; a gothic book called, The Ceremony. The book is too difficult to ignore for the intellectual Peterson who believes he has found the perfect case study for his report. However, his curiosity soon builds from initial interest to precarious obsession as the book's contents create a world where reality has begun to fade. As night falls, Eric finds himself imprisoned within a mental state of confusion as his home seems to have been overcome by a seemingly malevolent force.A film that dares to challenge traditional thrillers, The Ceremony creates a vivid mystery surrounding a young man's circumstances as he struggles to identify what is happening around him, or what could be happening... from within.
