As a former Christian fundamentalist I was looking forward to this.... all I can say is that it is what an immature and unworldly person would imagine are the thoughts of fundamentalists without any nuance or authenticity. It's almost as if the writer has never experienced people with these beliefs and simply imagined how they would behave after a quick google search of some radical beliefs. The acting was terrible, but it's hard to tell whether the acting or the script was worse. There are so many odd and uncomfortable things that people with extreme beliefs do and say that is very odd... it was surprising that this film didn't draw from any of it, but rather in an attempt to exaggerate the craziness, became unbelievable. I wondered a few times if it was a dark comedy/ satire because of how silly it was. For example, the military character. Was he improvising his details? It was factually inconsistent, exaggerated and ultimately inaccurate. Even a quick google search about military jobs and complications (like the psychosis described) would have made this depiction more believable. I can't believe an amateur film like this is on Amazon. This was so bad that I still think it might be a joke.
