This movie is anti-Christian. Look at the inverted cross in the name itself. It has an agenda - it's not just a movie. Do not watch it, do not let your close ones watch it either. There are many more other good horror flicks out there who can do it without demonising religion (and not any or all religion, it specifically targets Christians).

The first half is a decent set-up; a little dull, but nice and mysterious with a fantastic setting and village set. Unfortunately, the second half devolves into half-baked horror cheese with a couple of random torture sce…

Apostle delivers a chilling blend of psychological thriller and dark fantasy with a well-paced buildup, strong performances, and eerie tension throughout. While some mythology remains vague, its unsettling atmosphere and layered narrative keep viewers gripped. An intense watch for fans of mystery and cult-based horror.
