“A Sacrifice” (*1/2 out of four) was a listless collection of horror cliches about a social psychologist (Eric Bana) who is investigating strange phenomena connected to disturbing events; meanwhile his daughter (Sadie Sink) becomes enmeshed with a local boy (Jonas Dassler) who spells nothing but trouble. Film goes nowhere slowly and then devolves into over-the-top cerebral preposterousness in its final third. Ridley Scott was one of film’s co-producers but in no way is this worth “sacrificing” your own time on.
