When a grieving Black family moves into a picture-perfect suburban neighborhood for a fresh start, they quickly discover that the smiles are fake, the neighbors are watching, and the entire community may be part of a demonic cult fixated on consuming their pain. Trapped in a nightmare of manipulated grief and spiritual infiltration, the family must hold together—or be sanctified as the next offering.

SYNOPSIS:

After the tragic loss of their youngest son, the Jones family relocates to Sunset Grove—a pristine, Stepford-like suburban community promising peace and healing. But from the moment they arrive, things feel off. The neighbors are too friendly, too in sync. Eyes linger too long. Conversations feel rehearsed. As the Joneses try to settle into their new life, subtle disturbances grow more sinister: flickering lights, shadowy figures, and neighborhood gatherings that reek of ritual rather than welcome.

As the days pass, each family member is psychologically pulled in different directions. Mack and Sadie begin to unravel under the weight of unresolved grief and eerie coincidences, while their children, Carla and Shawn, encounter warnings from strange classmates and paranormal phenomena in their rooms. Meanwhile, the neighbors—led by a chilling cult leader disguised as a preacher—spy, record, and manipulate the family with religious fervor. The truth surfaces: Sunset Grove is a front for a decades-old cult that feeds on emotional suffering to summon and satisfy a demonic force.

Now, with their bond cracking and escape seemingly impossible, the Jones family must confront their own trauma and unify against a community that thrives on division and sacrifice. In a town where grief is currency and smiles are masks, survival depends not on blending in—but on fighting back. As the cult closes in, the question becomes: can love and memory protect a family from being spiritually devoured?
