In der neuen Folge vom Filmmagazin sprechen wir über Heretic von Scott Beck und Bryan Woods (Drehbuch zu A Quiet Place) – produziert vom Indie-Studio A24. Im Zentrum steht ein düsterer Hugh Grant, der als ketzerischer Intellektueller zwei junge Mormoninnen in seinem labyrinthartigen Haus gefangen hält. Was als dialoglastiger Psychohorror beginnt, entwickelt sich bald zu einem klassischen Escape-Room-Thriller mit religiösen Untertönen. Wir besprechen, warum Heretic in der ersten Hälfte mit Spannung, starkem Setdesign und einer subtilen Bedrohung überzeugt – und warum er in der zweiten Hälfte leider hinter seinen Möglichkeiten zurückbleibt. Ob sich der Film für den nächsten Horrorabend wirklich lohnt und was Heretic über Glaubenssysteme erzählt oder eben nicht – all das erfahrt ihr in dieser Folge.

In this episode, I chat with the talented Production Designer Ruta Kiskyte about her work on the film "Sing Sing," which stars Colman Domingo as Divine G, an innocent man who was imprisoned for 25 years but finds purpose through a theater group in prison. Ruta's dedication to authenticity shines as she collaborates with previously incarcerated cast members to recreate spaces like cells, theater sets, and the clemency hearing room. She paid meticulous attention to detail, sourcing Divine G's exact prison typewriter, crafting butterflies from candy foil, and even recreating clemency documents. Her artistry evoked powerful emotions from those whose stories inspired the film, a testament to her commitment to authenticity. Are you a fan of TV and film production?
