Heretic review religious horror with a suave, dapper and evil Hugh Grant
Briefly

Hugh Grant's career has taken a fascinating turn as he moves from romcom lead to an engaging character actor, now making his horror debut in a profound exploration of faith and morality.
In a disarmingly comedic style, Grant portrays Mr. Reed as a bespectacled British man who attempts to engage with religious themes while possessing a certain mockery of them, blending humor with horror.
The film, reminiscent of George Bernard Shaw's spirit, tackles a disturbing narrative around faith through Grant's character and his interactions with two young Mormon missionaries.
Grant's nuanced performance is a mixture of mischief and mock dismay, showcasing his ability to convey complexity as he navigates the absurdity of life and belief in a chilling setting.
