Ape-ril Fool's! A confident and unyielding propaganda film wrapped in an unassuming package, AMAZING APE uses talking chimps and political intrigue to teach the world how eating a completely raw food diet and doing yoga can reverse the effects of powerful diseases such as terminal cancer, rendering the medical establishment completely obsolete.

Ashley Hays Wright and David Owen Wright have become our favorite power couple of DIY Christian filmmaking. Together with their three daughters, they have produced over 20 feature films, some of which we've covered previously on our podcast: HALLOWEEN HERO, HALLOWEEN CANDYMARE, CHRISTMAS ZOMBIES, and THE EXORCISM IN AMARILLO. Although we've only scratched the surface of their vast catalog, we thou...

The sequel to the beloved Christian parkour film LEAP is an ambitious jump up in every way, from production quality to knowledge of biblical prophecy, allowing its cast of fit teens to hit the antichrist where it hurts him the most — his evil headquarters in the Vatican City. It's the contrast between the film's DIY action thriller tropes and the wordiness of its anti-Catholic messaging that makes...

We're so excited to add a new genre of Christian film to our repertoire: anti-Catholic movies made by Protestants. What's really going on in that weird little city called the Vatican? Brothers Casey and Wayne Harmberg allege that a cabal of Jesuit priests are working together to infiltrate the ranks of innocent churches to spread their insidious doctrine of universalism. They will also upset the e...

Is this a bone-chilling crime thriller that somehow got rewritten as a Christian inspirational movie? Kirk Cameron in his prime stars in A LITTLE PIECE OF HEAVEN, which sells itself as a whimsical comedy/drama about a young man who wants to adopt troubled kids into a loving family.

During our month of Christmas movies, we would be remiss if we didn't cover a film that takes us back to Bible times to really show us the reason for the season.

A key to understanding Christian horror films is to remember that the demonic possessions and devilish hauntings the films depict could actually happen to you and your family. SPIRITS AMONG US is a delightful low-budget flick from one-time director Ray Jenkins which shows that even demons you yourself didn't summon can still impact your life. In the film, a Christian family moves into a home that...
