The teenager Mark (Sebastian Gregory) has a crush on Chasely (Hanna Mangan Lawrence), who is the girlfriend of his best friend James (Joshua Payne) and is always teasing him. Mark and James share a secret: they were raped by the punk bully Gary Parker (Michael Dorman) when they were younger. While wandering in the woods, Mark witnesses a suspicious man with a shovel filling a hole and then sneaking from the place in a 4x4 Discovery with a butterfly cover on the spare tire. Mark tells James and Chasely and they return with shovels to dig the location, where they find the corpse of a woman. Instead of calling the police, they decide to find whether the killer lives. They discover that his name is Ian Wright (Joel Edgerton) and lives in the suburb with his wife and their baby. Mark and James blackmail Ian, ordering him to kill Gary Parker. However, the killer presses Gary and discovers the identities of the teenagers, reverting the situation and disclosing a dark secret about Mark.
"Acolytes" has a promising beginning with the weird relationship among Mark, James and Chasey and their discovery of the grave of a Caucasian woman. The first unreasonable and absurd situation is when the trio does not call the police and decides to investigate the possible killer. However, the conclusion when Ian teams up with his acolyte is so stupid and unthinkable that irritates. My vote is five.
