Have you ever wondered why we take seriously people who believe in ghosts but think believers in UFOs are nuts? Did you watch and have opinions on AEW's Revolution? If you've answered "no" to either of these questions, better skip ahead to 18:24.
No use beating around the bush: Gareth Evans's Apostle is not Lovecraftian in the slightest. However, the very thing that makes Thomas Richardson (Dan Stevens) the opposite of a Lovecraftian protagonist -- an unbeliever who journeys into belief -- is also what makes Apostle so engaging. More pagan than cosmic, Apostle explores the idea that there is something beyond humans, but it's humans that have tainted it. Tense, scary, and beautifully shot, it makes us eager for whatever films Evans does next.
