Heretic

"Genuinely suspenseful from start to end, I was impressed by this overall 5/5 horror/thriller. The dialogue is extremely well done and the plot is tied up nicely. Scary moments, moral dilemmas that you actually want to watch. I am extremely impressed by the performances of all involved, especially Hugh Grant. So much food for thought, so much to analyze and think about, but so entertaining to follow. Completely questions religion, but unlike so many other movies, it actually gives viewers a clear answer. I appreciate the small details in this (cinematography, music, references to pop culture) because it tied it together so well. I don't think I've seen another horror that makes me want to laugh and genuinely messes me up quite like this one did."

"Hugh Grant totally makes Heretic. I hope he'll do more horror thriller movies in the future. Also, Wendy's is my favorite fast food place. I hardly ever hear it mentioned on screen so that was fun to have it pop up here."

"Heretic (2024) is a psychological horror-thriller directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods. The film follows two young Mormon missionaries, Sister Barnes (Sophie Thatcher) and Sister Paxton (Chloe East), who, while proselytizing in a small mountain town, encounter the enigmatic Mr. Reed (Hugh Grant). Invited into his home under the pretense of a theological discussion, the missionaries soon find themselves ensnared in a perilous game of cat-and-mouse. Mr. Reed, initially charming and hospitable, gradually reveals a more sinister side, challenging the women's faith and beliefs through intense psychological manipulation. As the situation escalates, the missionaries must confront their deepest convictions to survive the ordeal. The film delves into themes of faith, manipulation, and the complexities of religious belief, offering a tense narrative that combines intellectual discourse with traditional horror elements. "

"Hugh Grant freaked me the **** out! "
