Heretic (2024) – A Sinister New Horror Experience
Set to release shortly after Halloween!
A24’s Heretic : Unmasking the Horror Behind Faith
From the minds of Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, Heretic unfolds as a psychological nightmare with Hugh Grant delivering a chilling portrayal as Mr. Reed, a menacing figure who blurs the lines between faith and terror. When two unsuspecting missionaries stumble into his trap, they’re drawn into a high-stakes game where faith alone may not save them. Known for A Quiet Place , Beck and Woods bring their signature tension and immersive horror to this disturbing narrative, creating something that’s as thought-provoking as it is horrifying
Why Heretic Stands Out
This film offers more than traditional scares, exploring themes of faith, manipulation, and the haunting effects of isolation.
Premiering to a captivated audience at the Toronto International Film Festival, critics noted Grant’s portrayal of Mr. Reed as “eerily magnetic” and “unexpectedly sinister.” Heretic challenges audiences to confront their own beliefs, with visuals and pacing that lend an unshakeable atmosphere of dread.
What to Expect
Set to release shortly after Halloween, Heretic arrives just in time for horror enthusiasts looking for a post-Halloween fix.
Its layered narrative and sinister tone promise a lasting impression—ideal for those who appreciate horror that resonates long after the credits roll.
