Body of Christ

About This Movie

Body of Christ takes the found footage approach and runs with it, really leaning into that grainy, unsettling aesthetic. Cillian Egan delivers a raw performance as a young YouTuber drawn to a decaying site steeped in cult history. The pacing builds slowly, almost painfully, which only heightens the dread. You feel the atmosphere thickening, like something just in the corner of your eye. The practical effects are a highlight too; they have this gritty authenticity that really pulls you in. It’s distinctive for mixing a classic horror vibe with modern anxieties about fame and exploration. There’s a tension here that lingers, leaving you guessing about what’s real and what’s not long after the credits roll.
