What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Carpenter's Son is peculiar enough to hold some cult appeal, but for all the promise this biblical horror's conception holds, its execution proves far from immaculate.

JOHN H it was cancelled and we did not get to see it Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/21/25 Full Review Erik H Sciptural inaccuracies. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/19/25 Full Review metalliphil Cast did a solid job w what they were given- they didnt permit themselves to use the main characters names which felt half hearted but the performances were decent- led to an interesting premise and execution Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/17/25 Full Review Brent This is made for TRUE CHRISTIANS! WHO have an open brain. I have studied Relgion for most of my life. & this is a brutal honest take. A young Jesus will still sin. I never felt more connected to this incredible young man playing Jesus. This isn’t horror it’s just HONEST & very Real! No True Christian would dare speak a word AGIANST this! It’s because they didn’t see the film. & FKA Twigs is incredible the power she holds in her body while acting. I can’t wait to see what this director does next! The flies in the film the metaphor for humans. & you want to know more. Read the BOOK OF THOMAS! Even if Jesus was just a man he’s a man that preached love & had to fight real human evil! & he told us to still love & forgive! When that boy YELLS! None of you WILL JUDGE! I will Only do that. The chills just ran through my body! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/16/25 Full Review Tyler H I am biased because I love FKA Twigs, but honestly loved it. Great acting, insane visuals. Slow burn, but I was moved by the performances and imagery. I would love to see it again. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/15/25 Full Review Paul T FLAWLESS movie!! 10/10🔥 Christians will HATE this movie, but realistic ppl will appreciate the story.
