As a seasoned horror enthusiast who has survived countless nights of sleepless terror thanks to my undying love for the genre, I can’t help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation about Greg McLean’s next project, “The First Exorcist.” The man behind the chilling Wolf Creek saga is diving into a possession thriller, and that alone should send shivers down any horror fan’s spine.
Greg McLean, the director behind the successful Australian horror movie “Wolf Creek,” is planning his next venture: a chilling possession thriller called “The First Exorcist.” McLean first brought “Wolf Creek” to life in 2005 and followed it with its sequel in 2013, as well as a TV series adaptation of the same name in 2016. He also crafted the lesser-known yet captivating horror masterpiece “The Belko Experiment,” where a group of office workers find themselves trapped inside a building and forced to kill each other under mysterious orders or face their own demise.
By the stated deadline, McLean will collaborate with producer Mark Fennessy to present “The First Exorcist.” This film, set to start shooting in Australia next year, is described as a captivating blend of religious and supernatural events occurring during Biblical times. The narrative revolves around a mother’s struggle to free her daughter from demonic possession. Although no casting decisions have been disclosed thus far, the plot offers insights into both the movie’s subject matter and potential main storyline. Take a look at the details below.
In the midst of our lives spinning out of control, I stumbled upon word of a mystical healer rumored to have the power to banish evil spirits. With my daughter’s life hanging in the balance, I embarked on a harrowing journey against time, facing off against hostile Roman officials as I navigated treacherous paths in search of this healer and potentially salvation for my child.
Is it conceivable that the “mystery healer” could be Jesus himself, considering The First Exorcist is set during biblical periods? It’s plausible, as Jesus was renowned for performing exorcisms in his time, such as casting out a demon from a man who was both blind and mute, another from a man in the Capernaum synagogue, and most notably, an exorcism on a man in Gerasene where he drove demons into a herd of pigs who then plunged into a lake to drown.
Jesus’ History with the Horror Genre
Despite there being a gargantuan number of horror films focused on demonic possessions and exorcisms, Jesus has appeared in few genre pieces over the years. Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter and The Seventh Sign are a couple that come to mind, with the former being more of a comedy, and the latter dealing with the Book of Revelations that portrays Christ as a mysterious traveler played by the outstanding Jürgen Prochnow.
It might seem surprising that, with so much material in the Bible for inspiration, Jesus hasn’t been a central figure in many supernatural horror films yet. This could be due to challenges in setting a movie during biblical times or the desire to avoid offending a significant portion of the population. Instead, Jesus has primarily appeared in more serious dramas like Mel Gibson’s “The Passion of the Christ” and Martin Scorsese’s “The Last Temptation of Christ.”
In other news, Nicolas Cage has been announced to play the role of Jesus’ father in an upcoming horror movie titled “The Carpenter’s Son.” This film follows the life of a young Jesus as he confronts challenges from both natural and supernatural sources. It remains uncertain whether this movie marks the start of a new trend, but keep an eye out for updates on “The First Exorcist,” especially since it might be related to Jesus – we’ll share more information once it becomes available.
