Сам термин «фолк-хоррор» для описания специфических фильмов ужасов появился в XXI веке при попытке осмыслить кино, снятое в ХХ веке. Первая волна фолк-хоррора появилась в США и Великобритании в конце 60-х – начале 70-х годов ХХ века, хотя отдельные образчики жанра можно выявить и в 1920-х годах. Эталоном фолк-хоррора можно считать фильмы так называемой "нечестивой троицы": "Великий инквизитор" (1968 год, режиссер Майкл Ривз), "Кровь на когтях сатаны" (1971 год, режиссер Пирс Хэггард) и "Плетенный человек" (1973 год, режиссер Робин Харди). В документальной ленте проводится тщательный разбор и анализ "фолк-хоррора" при участии множества авторов в этом поджанре, проиллюстрированный большим количеством вставок из фильмов со всего света.

(Long Synopsis) "In this laugh-out-loud, satirical comedy, Tripp Bailey (Marc Evan Johnson, Transformers) is a washed-up journalist who longs to be a high-profile, hard-hitting investigative reporter. But he has a plan … a plot to infiltrate and debunk Pyrasphere, Hollywood’s fastest-growing, new-age religion! Armed with only “The Truth”, he drafts his brother-in-law (Matt Price, TV’s Men of a Certain Age, Evan Almighty, Man on the Moon), a wedding/bar mitzvah videographer, and sets out to make his name. Under the leadership of glamorous, fame-seeking guru Gossamyrhh (Maggie Rowe, Ocean’s Thirteen, Fun With Dick and Jane), the duo encounters a wildly colorful collection of cultists, including his ex-wife (Amy Stiller, Tropic Thunder, Zoolander, The Cable Guy). But is Gossamyrhh’s philosophy actually genuine? Can Tripp really have it all through enlightenment … or is it a sham and part of a not-so-divine plan?

A hybrid documentary feature film about the genesis of "memetic magick" and its application by the alt-right in the United States.
Tens of thousands of years ago man stood upright; looked around and discovered existence. He was suddenly conscious of himself and the universe. And soon he needed to explain everything he saw and experienced. He embarked on a journey of discovery so profound it gave rise to the religions of the globe and even modern science. What is the meaning of life; is there life after death; and is there a God? These were the most fundamental questions anybody has ever dared to ask. Today, after thousands of years of searching and the development of modern science, we are moving closer to the answers than ever before. What we have discovered is that existence in the macro world matches that of the micro world. As it is above, so it is below and this understanding unlocks the answers we are searching for. Through quantum physics we can now finally look upon the face of God and see the meaning of existence.
