A psychological horror film with romance master Hugh Grant, who also offers a substantive and intelligent criticism of religion? All of this can be found in the film HERETIC, which opens in German cinemas this week! As the shady Mr. Reed, he makes the two Mormon women Sister Barnes (Sophie Thatcher) and Sister Paxton (Chloe East) answer questions for their faith. Mr. Reed compares religions to board games like Monopoly, to Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars and sings his way through another disturbing horror film from A24! But does religious discussion work in a horror film? Find out in a new film review here on CINEMA STRIKES BACK!
