Heretic 2024 5Movierulz: Release Date, Box Office Collection and Review
The new work of the tandem formed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods
One of the highlights to end 2024 will be HERETIC, the new work by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, responsible for the magnificent "House of Terror" and screenwriters of the first installment of "A Quiet Place", one of the great successes of recent horror cinema.
The film, which will be released under the A24 label, has already been seen at the Toronto Film Festival and critics are enthusiastic about the film and especially about the performance of Hugh Grant, who completely changes his register in this film, becoming a very disturbing character.
Here are some of the reviews for the film:
"A thorny, unpredictable thriller (...) You'll never think of blueberry pie the same way again" VARIETY
"Hugh Grant is the most evil mansplainer in film history" SCREENDAILY
"Beck and Woods have redefined the genre" THE WRAP
"Hugh Grant is magnificent" FANDANGO
"Mind-blowing" THE FILM STAGE
"The film keeps you on the edge of your seat with every dark twist in the plot. [···] Pondering theology has never been so devilishly entertaining" ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
HERETIC ARGUMENT
Two young missionaries are forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by the evil Mr. Reed (Hugh Grant). The three are caught up in a brutal game of cat and mouse during a long, stormy night.
HERETIC RELEASE DATE
DeaPlaneta will release Heretic Movie in Spanish cinemas on January 3, 2025.
CAST OF HERETIC
Joining Hugh Grant in the cast are Sophie Thatcher, Chloe East, Elle McKinnon, River Codack, Stephanie Lavigne, Carolyn Adair, Elle Young, and Haylie Hansen.
Hugh Grant, in a role completely removed from his usual one, delivers a spectacular tour de force. “What makes Hugh Grant so perfect for the role of Mr. Reed is that in HERETIC we see him in a register that is unlike anything he’s done before, but at the same time he uses all the techniques and tricks we love, and are familiar with and gives them a macabre twist,” says producer Stacey Sher.
“With HERETIC, we wanted to provoke our audience,” say writer-directors Beck and Woods. «We thought it would be special to write a thrilling script where fear and terror emerge from the dialogue, through the words and concepts that are presented [···] If we have done our job well, the audience will bring their own ideas about religion to the film's discourse: What do we believe and what do we not believe?»
