The Summoned 2022 Movie Review & Film Summary. A working-class man and his rock star girlfriend attend a weekend retreat hosted by a well-known self-help guru. When they arrive, they run into two of her friends and discover his connection to a Faustian bargain. THE SUMMONED reminded me of a number of films from the late 1970s and early 1980s about retreats with dark things lurking beneath the surface. This is precisely the type of film that.
To be honest, while I had a great time watching the film, I don't think it's perfect. Frederick Stewart as Dr Frost is far too goofy, and he takes the sting out of the tension by never being sinister enough. The film also appears to have been working with quotas of both cliché and really cool turns, because for every turn I didn't see coming, there was another that had me shaking my head, wondering why they made that choice. It was the kind of thing that made me wonder why they didn't just go with the cool stuff.
