Hugh Grant utilizes his well-known charm to disarm two Mormon missionaries recruiting new converts as Mr. Reed in the A24's psychological thriller "Heretic."

A24 terrfies with captivating characters in ‘Heretic’

By Will Caron, Staff Writer November 13, 2024
“Heretic” was released by A24 on Nov. 8, marking directors Scott Beck and Bryan Woods’ latest terrifying contribution to the horror scene following “A Quiet Place” and other lesser-known horror films. The film stars Hugh Grant as the endlessly captivating yet bone chilling Mr. Reed, Sophie Thatcher as Sister Barnes, and Chloe East as Sister Paxton. From start to finish, “Heretic” proves itself a gem amidst the slew of horror movies already released this year. While this year has heralded some truly great horror films, this film takes it a step further through its unique blend of horror, intrigue and questions it poses to the audience. “Heretic” takes place in one house and follows three characters, yet it never gets old. Whether through its extremely clever use of tension or the genuinely thought-provoking questions Mr. Reed forces you to ponder, “Heretic” remains a captivating film through and through.
"The Gentleman," directed by Guy Ritchie, un unabashedly British in its humor. Unfortunately, the cast of excellent actors cannot make up for the film's disorganized narrative.
