"HERETIC"
Lynne and I saw this at the cinema today (yes, we still have cinemas LOL)
poses a hell of a lot of questions about 'faith', 'belief' and religion in general
Plot:
Two LDS Church missionaries, confident Sister Barnes and timid Sister Paxton, arrive at the home of a reclusive man, Mr. Reed. He invites them in, assuring them that his wife is preparing a blueberry pie in the back of the house. They begin to discuss religion, with Reed making several uncomfortable comments about their Mormon faith and the nature of belief. When Reed steps out of the room, Barnes realizes that the smell of blueberry pie is from a candle, the front door is locked, and they have no phone signal.
They follow Reed to his study, where he gives them a threatening lecture arguing that all religions are adaptations of one another, and claims to have found the one true religion. He gives the girls a choice of two doors to go through to exit the house: one if they still believe in God, and one if they do not.
not revealing any more because it might spoil this psychologial thriller for those who may be interested
Rating: 3.5/5
