THE RITUAL (Moder, Eldritch Child of Loki + Ending) EXPLAINED

Hey guys what’s happening? Niyat here with film comics explained. As requested, today we’ll be exploring The Ritual, the 2017 British horror film directed by David Bruckner and written by Joe Barton, based on Adam Nevill's novel of the same name, published in 2011. Starring Rafe Spall, Arsher Ali, Robert James-Collier, Sam Troughton, and Paul Reid, the film revolves around a group of old college friends haunted by the death of one of their own. Reuniting for a hiking trip in Sweden, the fractured friends hope to use the adventure as a final send off to their fallen comrade. But when one of them is injured, forcing them to take a shortcut, the team building exercise enters the realm of the cosmic horror as a menacing presence begins stalking them. "The Ritual” is no ordinary stroll in the woods. It's a harrowing tale of grief, guilt, friendship, chaos and old gods that lurk in the shadowy depths of the uncharted Scandinavian wilderness. As we delve into this deep, dark cinematic forest, we'll examine the story, the monstrous entity that haunts our protagonists, the mythology it’s based on, the differences between the novel and film, in addition to the meaning behind the ending.
