Mike Norris (son of Chuck) directs and stars in this Christian survival fantasy about a Christian community working together to stay alive in a post-apocalyptic environment as a zombie death virus ravages the land. Norris plays a character named "Hunter Wilde" who is supposed to be the heroic leader of the Crossroads campground, but his selfish actions and terrible decision making routinely put th...

From the mind of a high-ranking military official comes this inspirational tale of a charismatic red-headed orphan who grows up to fulfill his dream of being interviewed on a podcast. Oliver is just a poor boy making the most of his life in a pastoral halfway house, but everything changes when he wins an art contest and convinces his father figure to carve him a "red big fire truck" that becomes t...

A father and son's candid conversation in an abandoned warehouse turns into a flashback about an encounter with some evil glasses.

The Bible Boys enjoy the last thrills of summer with this gnarly and radical y2k Christian extreme sports film. EXTREMEDAYS isn't plot heavy, but its death-defying stunts and alt attitude punctuated by the then-hottest sounds in Christian rap and punk music make it a nostalgia fave among millenials who grew up in the church. TobyMac sings the theme song and the Christian streetwear brand Truth Sou...

Crowder and his then-cohost, nicknamed "Not Gay Jared", fire off a series of questions to Alexa in order to determine he...

We continue our journey through the Christiano Brothers filmography with this VHS-friendly 40 minute film about a high school boy named Keith who starts memorizing Bible verses and going to church, but only for one purpose - to hook up with a hot Christian girl. What follows is one of the most elaborate schemes in the name of horniness. Keith gets deeply embedded in the ways of the faithful to suc...

Not one of the 55 minutes of this film is wasted - the action is blistering, the dramatic high points are at once psychologically distressing yet l...

In this special episode, we spotlight one of our all time favorite directors who barely gets any coverage in press, even by fans of obscure cinema. We're changing that today! cTom is one of the aliases of a mysterious film director who had an incredible run of directing six feature films from 2011-13. These are extremely low budget productions, starring unknown actors, but the conceptual scope of...

It's Christmas in July! Following our traditional gift exchange, we plunge into this exquisitely edited hour-long holiday offering from Faith Leap Films. It's pretty obvious from the title that this is yet another take on the Dickens story. Carol is a horrible #girlboss who forbids Christmas cheer at the office, and forces her employees to pay to use the communal coffee machine. Can three Biblical...

In the late 2000s, Americans were captivated with the infamous Duggar Family and thei...

The final frontier of Christian filmmaking is -- horror. It's a genre that captivates even the most insular Christian artists, so it's natural that attempts have been made to create heart-pounding films that still manage to carry a biblical message. THR3E, based on the novel by prolific Christian thriller/fantasy author Ted Dekker, is a deeply confusing endeavor in this category that gets so hung...

A lot of the films we cover are distinctly American, linking Christianity with patriotism and American individualism. But BEYOND THE MASK is fitting for our 4th of July special   - powdered wigs, gunpowder, and plots of treason abound as a masked vigilante aids the founding fathers in their quest for American independence from the British empire. Protagonist William Reynolds, an agent for the East...

Adapted from a YA fantasy novel written by the director (Chris Heimerdinger) himself, PASSAGE TO ZARAHEMLA takes teen fantasy tropes - such as unlocked supernatural abilities, time travel, and star-crossed lovers - and places them within a story fully based on the teachings of the Book of Mormon. Especially of note here is the alternate history of the Americas purported by Mormon lore - Nephites,...

A cherubic twink musician named Adam loses his way and goes goth, much to the horror of his Christian father Joseph. Joseph journeys to a seedy big city club called Purgatory to rescue him - but the literal Devil is working against him at every turn, tempting him with earthly lusts. Fortunately, a mysterious team of archangels who are also jazz musicians are lurking behind the scenes, pulling the...

Smartphones. Social media. "Likes". "Retweets". We are more "connected" than ever before - but at what cost? The year is 2018. We are hearing more and more about a new plane of reality that many are calling the "Internet". Former child star and prolific Christian auteur Kirk Cameron's most recent project as a producer is CONNECT, a documentary about how Christian parents need to rise to the occasi...

Rational-minded people, rise up! Comedian and political commentator Bill Maher's RELIGULOUS is a documentary about how religion is "detrimental to the progress of humanity". In a series of on-location interviews, Maher sets up false pretenses in order to interact with a variety of religious people who assume good faith, only to get "gotcha'd" by Maher's noxiously smug tone. It's troubling that whi...

This famous firefighter drama starring Kirk Cameron has one of the most iconic anti-porn storylines in the Christian genre, with an explosive conclusion - but that's just scratching the surface of FIREPROOF, an entertaining yet surprisingly dense offering from the prolific Kendrick Brothers that did quite well at the box office upon its release in 2008. Not only was it the highest grossing indie f...

In this deceptively charming yet complicated film by Russell S. Doughton Jr., the director of the very popular apocalyptic Christian film A THIEF IN THE NIGHT, a ragtag group of lost and lonely youth are pushed to the brink when their after school basketball practice is cancelled for two entire months so the gym can be taken over by a famous Christian puppeteer. In a fit of vengeful rage, they tra...

The Christiano Brothers are some of our favorite directors. Their highly competent but no-frills style makes them the perfect auteurs to deliver a deadly serious Christian message about the dangers of sin and hell. But that doesn't mean they can't have a little fun! This comedy whodunit CRIME OF THE AGE shows the Brothers getting a little loose with the messaging, yet somehow still creating a film...
