The Sacrament and Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum Unboxings

Second Sight Films, those wonderful purveyors of cult film and physical media, are at it again – this time with a double-bill of harrowing found footage chillers. Giving their celebrated Limited Edition treatment to Ti West’s 2013 Jonestown Massacre-inspired The Sacrament and Jung Bum-shik’s 2018 supernatural horror Gonjiam: Haunted Ayslum, Second Sight continue to prove that there’s nobody doing it like them. 

These two little indie horrors have been treated with the utmost respect in these exhaustive editions that include all the usual bells and whistles – art-cards, booklet, special features – and wonderful transfers of the films. Both of these should be considered essential purchases for any and all horror enthusiasts.
