Seeing this tonight, and I'm glad to hear you really enjoyed it! As an ex-Mormon who loves seeing Hugh Grant be a villain, I'm quite intrigued.

[TheLegendaryMovieCritic]

Hugh Grant going from Heretic to
Paddington In Peru is insane!

[catwhisperer]

Saw it yesterday and can't stop thinking about it. Already in my top 10 of the year!

[danielcarlson]

This sounds really good! And we have new owners at our local theater who hopefully (fingers crossed) will be showing more genre stuff. Hope we get this one!

[LockeDemosthenes]

Fun fact, Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East are both Ex-Mormons in real life. Also, one of the directors of the film is married to a Mormon.

[Edowin-jzsj]

I just saw it and loved it! The slow start didn't bother me at all as I was very much on edge and interested to find out what Grant's character's plan was.

You’ve said 8 for originality but the caption says 7. Very intriguing description, thanks, can’t wait for it to come on VOD. X

[RyukoLlama]

THIS is the type of horror I appreciate. The philosophical aspect of it made my brain so happy and kept me on the edge of my seat. I'll probably rewatch again this weekend. Winner in my book!

[hakeem]

Your cinema ceases to amaze me everytime you show it

[pkriszti]

I watched it in the cinema and there was quite a few elderly in the audience, as the film started some of them walked out after like 15mins into it and some more within the first hour.
Makes me think they maybe thought it's gonna be an old school Hugh Grant movie? I'm not sure.
As for me, i loved the fact that they brought up very challenging questions about religion. Great film.

[TtoTheRock]

I am absolutely pumped for this film. We cannot ever have enough good religious horror films!

[cosa_oscura]

Ex LDS married to ex LDS here. Just watched it and I think your description is spot on. Won’t be for everyone (cause of the methodically slow and dialogue heavy start) but it just hit the exact sweet spot for me.

[bloodygoodjune]

I literally could not stop thinking about it the whole ride home. I definitely think i need to watch it again to figure out where it lands in my end of year list as well. It will definitely be there somewhere...

[iwilder]

Ayyy, I'm glad you liked it! This was one I had been thinking about for awhile after seeing it, considering my background. I'm pumped to see it again soon!

[tjdw]

A24's Saw. Saw for the religious. Hugh Grant as Wikipedia Jigsaw. I of course really enjoyed it

[nathaliedrinkstea]

I am so curious about this one. I really cannot imagine Hugh Grant working as any character in a horror movie, but your review gave me hope ♥

[ragekage]

One of my really good friends growing up was Mormon and he had a large family. I attended several of their services at their church, as well. They were very faithful to their practices and I got some first hand exposure to their religion. They were very strict on certain things. We played a lot of basketball together through his church but he was literally forbidden* to watch or/play sports on Sundays. They would also have family gatherings in their living room nightly with everyone who lived in the home. They definitely had a great sense of togetherness that was palpable.


It was definitely different, but it was interesting to learn about their “ways” so to speak.

[STUK]

I saw it a couple of weekends ago and you echo my sentiments on the film. This has to be a career-best turn by Hugh Grant and the two female leads were also fantastic. It drew me in from the off and I really wanted the protagonists to come out on top. And it certainly spoke to me as someone who is non-religious, I'll just say that 🙂

[benjo]

Just got back with Dad from the cinema, he's quite hard to please so I'm thrilled that he enjoyed it.

I watched this with Beck and Woods, Chloe East, and the costume designer over the weekend at Beck and Wood's Last Picture House movie theater. We had blueberry smell-o-vision cards, blueberry themed drinks, etc. It was amazing!!
