John C. Clark and Brie Williams’s new exorcism film A Closer Walk With Thee just won Best Actor and the Grand Jury award in the Graveyard Shift Competition at the Nashville Film Festival. To celebrate, we’ve been provided with a new poster and several unreleased stills.
Four young Evangelical missionaries set up a house church in inner-city Los Angeles to try and save the neighborhood from a Satanist gang. Jordan is a good Christian kid, except that he’s starting to have impure sexual thoughts about his close friend and fellow missionary Eli. When he’s caught watching Eli shower, he is outed to the group and painfully ostracized – until Eli, who happens to be a fledgling exorcist, suggests that a demonic possession might be causing these Jordan’s feelings. Jordan begins to enact signs of possession, prompting Eli to take action. What begins as a ritualistic method of trying to save their friendship quickly spirals out of control and descends into darkness and violence.
Watch for distribution news when it comes in. We’ve also included the trailer, with the new stills and art below.
