Ritual is a 2002 horror movie directed by Avi Nesher and starring Jennifer Grey, Craig Sheffer, and Daniel Lapaine. The movie revolves around the story of a young American woman named Dr. Alice Dodgson (Grey), who travels to Jamaica to investigate the mysterious disappearance of her father, a famous anthropologist. Alice arrives in Jamaica and soon realizes that her father was involved in some kind of dark and mysterious ceremony that is linked to the local voodoo traditions. She discovers that her father was studying a ritual that can bring people back from the dead, but that it has catastrophic consequences for both the living and the dead.

Alice meets a local man named Paul Claybourne (Sheffer) who is also investigating the death of his brother, a policeman who was investigating the same voodoo cult. Together, they discover that the cult is led by a powerful and evil voodoo priest named Lucien (Lapaine), who is planning on using the ritual to resurrect an ancient sorceress and unleash her wrath on the world.

As Alice and Paul become more involved in the investigation, they discover that they are in great danger from the voodoo cult, and they have to fight for their lives against the powerful and malevolent forces that are at work. The movie features a number of suspenseful and terrifying scenes, as well as a number of gruesome and violent deaths that are sure to keep viewers on the edge of their seats.

The movie also features an excellent score by Simon Boswell, which adds to the eerie and haunting mood of the film.

Another great aspect of Ritual is the strong performances by the three main actors. Jennifer Grey delivers a solid performance as Dr. Alice Dodgson, a strong and determined woman who is determined to discover the truth about her father's death.
