A24 has released the final trailer for the horror thriller «Heretic». The film was directed by Scott Beck and Brian Woods, known for their screenwriting work in the «A Quiet Place» franchise.
The movie «Heretic» tells the story of two Mormon missionaries (Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East) who spread the word of God. One not-so-great day, they visit an elderly man (Hugh Grant) to convert him to the faith. However, the seemingly sweet and friendly old man turned out to be a maniac and anti-religious fanatic. Now the young girls will have to find a way out of his maze-like house with many traps and sophisticated tortures, which the Heretic calls the «test of faith». The film combines puzzle and creepy aesthetics in the style of «Death Maze», «The Invisible Man» and the «Saw» franchise.
Hugh Grant, who usually plays positive characters, this time tried a radically new role for his career. Now we are looking at a fanatical atheist who balances between an ironic cynic and a cruel maniac. The roles of the Mormon sisters are played by Sophie Thatcher («Hornets», «MaXXXin») and Chloe East («The Fabelmans»).
Scott Beck and Brian Woods («A Quiet Place», «65») directed and wrote «Heretic». Stacey Sher («Pulp Fiction», «The Hateful Eight») is the producer.
The film «Heretic» will be released in Ukrainian cinemas on November 28.
