I was surprised by this one! Going to add spoiler tags because it’s hard for me to describe my feelings without giving away too many plot details.
Normally I am not into religious horror that has a happy ending, God saves the day type of thing. But I loved the characters so much! And the horror elements? Perfectly done. Instead of it just being standard temptations for our heroes, they were faced with some truly terrifying things, which got to me a few times. Having a happy ending just felt right after all they went through!
Graphic: Animal death, Body horror, Religious bigotry, and Pandemic/Epidemic
Moderate: Homophobia and Sexual assault
Minor: Sexual violence
