Heretic

If Hugh Grant wants to become the modern age Vincent Price, Heretic is his pitch perfect audition. Heretic, written and directed by the A Quiet Place team of Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, is a showcase for Hugh Grant’s talent for holding an audience in thrall with his charisma, that malevolent twinkle in his eye, and his endlessly charming speech. Grant dominates the screen in Heretic and his performance is stunning.
Heretic centers its story on two young women, Sister Barnes (Sophie Thatcher) and Sister Paxton (Chloe East). The pair are Mormon missionaries who go door to door delivering literature about the church and helping people convert to their religion. At the end of a long day of canvassing an Utah neighborhood, their final visit is with a man who requested to have someone come to his home to help him with his conversion. That man is Mr. Reed (Hugh Grant) who welcomes the young women with the promise that his wife is in the next room.
