The Carpenter’s Son plunges us into Roman-era Egypt, where carpenter Joseph (Nicolas Cage), his wife Mary (FKA twigs) and their teen son Jesus (Noah Jupe) are beset by supernatural forces. When a mysterious stranger pops up and starts pulling Jesus away from his father’s devout ways, the family faces violent disturbances, creepy visions of tomorrow and the bone-chilling truth that junior’s new playmate is literally Satan.
Writer-director Lotfy Nathan, drawing on his Coptic Christian heritage, delivers a sleek, genre-busting thriller that pits divine wonders against demonic terror. Expect unshakeable imagery, heart-pounding spiritual warfare and a fresh take on the age-old battle between heaven and hell.
