Movie Review: FoxFaith's 'Sin Eater'

I was intrigued by the title of this one. From the Christian Post:

Set in the Appalachian Mountains in early American history, the movie explores a community of Welsh settlers that practice an eerie ritual in the wilderness. When a member dies, a cursed human, known as the “sin eater,” appears, so that he may “eat away” the past sins of the deceased individual, discharging them of their transgressions.

The film revolves around the story of a young girl in the population named Cadi Forbes (Liana Liberato) who becomes intrigued by this cursed figure. Overridden by her own guilt over a childhood incident, she seeks the man out to try to empty away her sins while she is still alive.

On her quest to discover the sin eater, she uncovers a dark secret that may divide the whole community while she also begins to understand how to gain true salvation.


The review continues on to say that while some "faith" films are shoddy work with a "Christian" label slapped on it to draw the faithful, this one is put together well.

I can't vouch for the film in any way beyond what was said in this review, but it sounds interesting and I plan to watch for it.
