Them That Follow never quite captures the spiritual fervor of its setting, but the cast's committed performances make for an intermittently satisfying character study.

Yes, the plot is soapy, but the writing and directing team Britt Poulton and Dan Madison Savage treat the characters with dignity, are fascinated by the rigid pentecostal milieu and create a pervading sense of gloom that's intensely compelling. Nov 25, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Boy howdy, do the serpents ever serve a fine cinematic purpose: visual proofs of invisible things: faith, forgiveness, and the danger to self that makes it "a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God." Aug 10, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

The problem isn't that Mara behaves passively - it's that the character is too flat to gain our sympathies. Aug 7, 2019 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

The movie feels like something someone can't let go off for some reason. Fascinating cast. Weak script. [Full review in Spanish]. Jan 16, 2020 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

This backwoods tale is packed with high drama and incident and feverish passion -- secrets are revealed, guns and axes come into play. Yet it doesn't feel like artificial melodrama; the atmosphere rings with authenticity. Jan 6, 2020 | Full Review…
