IMDb Rating: 5.1/10
The Unholy is a supernatural horror film directed by Evan Spiliotopoulos, based on the 1983 novel Shrine by James Herbert. The film stars Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Gerry Fenn, a disgraced journalist searching for a career-reviving story. He finds himself in a small town where strange and miraculous events begin to unfold around a young deaf girl named Alice (Cricket Brown). After a mysterious encounter, Alice suddenly gains the ability to hear, speak, and even heal people. She claims that her powers are a gift from the Virgin Mary, and the town soon becomes a pilgrimage site as word of these miracles spreads.
However, as Aliceβs fame grows, Gerry starts to suspect that something far darker is at play. The entity behind the miracles may not be the holy figure Alice believes it to be. As the sinister nature of these miracles becomes clear, Gerry finds himself in a race to uncover the truth before the town succumbs to the evil forces lurking beneath the surface.
The Unholy explores deep themes of faith, skepticism, and the fine line between belief and manipulation. It creates an eerie atmosphere, combining religious symbolism with unsettling supernatural elements. With intense visuals and a suspenseful plot, the film keeps viewers questioning the true source of Alice's powers until the very end.
