My King (2021) TEASER

When Christian teen David Gutierrez arrives at his new high school, he is immediately mortified by being the only kid who says “Under God” during the pledge. He is ruthlessly mocked by the school bully and called into the headmaster’s (Casper Van Dien) office to be reprimanded for breaking the school’s “religious tolerance” rules, which of course mean that all religions are tolerated except for Christianity. David’s debate club advisor (Kevin Sorbo) encourages him to take a stand for his beliefs; this leads David to cause a “viral moment” by asking a visiting presidential candidate (Antonio Sabata Jr.) to put God back into politics, the video of which is then spread online like wildfire. ONE NATION UNDER GOD is a relatively high-budget film for the Christian genre, directed by Lisa Arnold (This Is Our Time), which delightfully hits all the most cliche beats of the faith-based films we know in love — atheist teachers, precocious Christian kids, a preoccupation with “going viral”, and a climactic showdown debate where the Christian kid owns his opponent with logic and reason. It also stars a pantheon of Christian film royalty, with one of Sorbo’s best film performances ever, even though he’s playing basically he same character he plays in all of his films. ONE NATION UNDER GOD is the perfect Christian film to put on with your friends because it’s not too depressing, has several laugh out loud moments, and might even give you a few talking points for your next debate. You’ll be proud that our founding fathers made the Constitution go viral!

A Christian millennial melodrama that is equal parts snarky and depressing, THIS IS OUR TIME is a love letter from director Lisa Arnold to the dreamers who graduated college in 2012 with wide eyes and a twitter account and tried to make a name for themselves. Five friends each leave college with greatly different career prospects; Ethan feels shame about being stuck in a sandwich shop while his high-achieving friends Ryder and Kate land high-powered entry level business careers, and his sister Alé and her husband Luke move to India to do outreach missionary work for children with leprosy. When Alé is randomly hit by a car and dies (the most Christian film plot point ever) the friends must reassess their dreams amidst the sobering daylight of reality. They begin a “viral” social media campaign to raise funds for Embrace A Village, a real life charitable organization that seems to have sponsored the film in some way, confusingly blending fiction and reality. THIS IS OUR TIME is an aggressively 2010s film that puts a Christian flair on millennial stereotypes of lattes, iPhones, and the concept of “adulting”. The film conclusively proves that millennials who were seniors in college in the year 2012 are some of the most annoying people to ever walk the earth.

Can a robot become so intelligent that it acquires a human soul, and can we make it sexy? These are questions posed by THE ROBOT THE CREATOR by director Jasmine Deanne Andrews (sulliedbride.com) and co-writer Aaron R Sampson, a truly remarkable DIY Christian film with a huge amount of imagination, delivering an uncompromisingly ambitious story about killer robots and CIA laboratories but filmed on no budget in random people’s houses. The government asks a dream team of robotics scientists to continue their research years after one of their robots programmed with the “kill kill kill command” goes on a (you guessed it) killing spree, and the team reluctantly reassembles to perfect their research in a more ethical manner. They resurrect their experiment, a female robot named Auto Mae, but tragedy strikes after the team teaches her the comedy of Looney Tunes and she pushes a scientist off of a cliff because she thinks it would be funny (this is the actual plot of the movie). Auto Mae’s natural intelligence makes her curious about the creator of humanity, but ultimately, the human folly of imitating God by creating a robot is too big of a sin for God to ignore. Can the world’s top robotics team close Pandora’s Box before it’s too late?

This one’s for you. Ever since we watched director Kenya Cagle’s magnum opus THE BOY WHO SAW CHRIST, we’re committed to exploring the rest of his Caglevision catalog. Our next pick is MY KING, a romantic thriller about a Christian couple engaged to be married and the evil forces conspiring to keep them apart. Andrea works a high level job at Synray, a company that doesn’t seem to do anything other than maintain a stressful office atmosphere. Andrea’s boss, Mr. Pierre, is an old flame who may have once drugged and sexually assaulted her at a college party. Her only workplace confidante Miriam may have been complicit in the assault and even selected the roofie that drugged Andrea (???). Andrea’s fiancé Alfred has struggles of his own, between his millionaire parents who don’t support his relationship and the fact that quarantine has made it hard for him to find a job. When Alfred is mysteriously recruited to be Andrea’s coworker at Synray, it seems like that should be the end of the couple’s troubles, but it’s actually the beginning of a twisted game that threatens to ruin their lives forever. Kenya Cagle is the master of plot escalation and MY KING is a deceptively slow burn that builds to a genuinely insane climax. Caglevision films are not for the faint of heart — only for those of royal taste and regal temperament.  View our full episode list and subscribe to any of our public feeds: http://boysbiblestudy.com Unlock 2+ bonus episodes per month: http://patreon.com/boysbiblestudy Subscribe to our Twitch for livestreams: http://twitch.tv/boysbiblestudy Follow us on Instagram: http://instagram.com/boysbiblestudy Follow us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/boysbiblestudy

What would you do if Christ hugged you in the church bathroom? Eight-year-old Kenneth immediately tells his parents, expecting them to be delighted, only to see them freak out and interrupt the entire church service to try to investigate who exactly is the man who hugged their son in the bathroom. It’s actually a pretty natural reaction, but we’re so used to faith-based films about magical Christ-like children wowing the grownups in their lives with barely any pushback on their stories that we were shocked that this molestation investigation arc took up a good portion of the plot of THE BOY WHO SAW CHRIST. This is the first film we’ve watched by director Kenya Cagle, but it will absolutely not be the last. Mr. Cagle is a singular auteur with a fascinating style and a bizarre website where you can buy a duffel bag with his film posters printed on it for $80. His vision is powerful and comes through despite his technical limitations; in fact he is able to use his resources well to tell a complex story of divine apparitions, resurrections from the dead, mental illness, and preaching the Word to Muslims with nothing more than a digital camera and some devoted actors. We decided to review THE BOY WHO SAW CHRIST solely based on its compelling title and amazing cover art, but it instantly became one of our new favorite films.

In director Daniel Lusko’s (JINGLE SMELLS) political thriller PERSECUTED, devout Christians feel threatened by a new law called the “Faith and Fairness Act”. This law attempts to make the religious landscape in America more “fair” in some vague way that we at Boys’ Bible Study unfortunately were not able to understand despite all three of us watching the the movie separately and trying to pay attention to it. Nonetheless, the vibes are off in America and only one man, the famous TV pastor John Luther, seems to be able to wield the power and influence needed to prevent this law from passing. When John uses his platform to challenge the American government, they attempt to silence him by making it look like he killed a girl in a car crash. Now disgraced and on the run as a fugitive, can John salvage his reputation while also preventing the country from becoming more fair? PERSECUTED is very typical of Christian films made at the end of the Obama era, when Christians vented their frustrations about liberal hegemony by imagining themselves as righteous warriors struggling against a political conspiracy.

If God doesn’t exist, then how can you tell a good movie from a bad one? We ask ourselves this while attempting to review EYES FRONT, an extremely stylized feature from prolific music video director turned Christian film auteur Darren Doane. We first learned about Doane from his work on KIRK CAMERON’S SAVING CHRISTMAS, which Doane directs and co-stars in as a man who is missing the true spirit of Christmas. Doane seems to have an ability to pull more “famous” names than we’re usually accustomed to seeing in faith-based features; Michael Madsen stars in EYES FRONT, playing a gritty narrator on the run from the law after he kills his wife in a rage and dumps her body in the trunk of his car. His story is intertwined with the life of another murderer who was clearly inspired by American Psycho and is portrayed by Christopher Stapleton (not to be confused with the singer of the same name.) We also see this character kill out of rage, go on some cynical rants about his ex-girlfriend and how vegetarianism is stupid, and finally lash out once more at his identical twin brother who is a devout Christian. When two murderers and two twins’ lives intertwine at a final showdown in a diner, you won’t believe what happens next, and the reason you won’t is honestly because the story kind of degrades here and it’s very hard to gauge what is going on. Despite this, we appreciate a Christian film that is genuinely different than all the others we’ve watched, especially one that uses swears, including the dreaded “f-word”. Our friend and Christian music expert Josh Martin (Uncomfortable Brunch) returns to the show for the 3rd time to help us give this film some necessary context, especially with regards to its jam-packed soundtrack. Check out Uncomfortable Brunch, Josh's screening in the Orlando, FL area.

Portrayed by an all star cast, including Kevin Sorbo, Barry Bostwick, and special guest star Jon Lovitz, THE POTWINS are a family of greatly differing political views who still manage to find common ground with each other. We previously reviewed this show in its earlier incarnation as THE WORLD ACCORDING TO BILLY POTWIN, which starred Jonah Britton (possibly the son of writer/director Lenny Britton) as an intellectually precocious young libertarian who is able to mischievously outsmart all the adults in his life, especially the dumb liberals. Billy is back but takes a smaller role in favor of Kevin Sorbo’s lead role as patriarch Nate Potwin, whose more sensible, “Can’t we all just get along?” vibe echoes the theme of the show. THE POTWINS is now being marketed as the official show of X (formerly Twitter), despite a lack of official endorsement from X CEO Elon Musk or any other X staff. Nevertheless, new THE POTWINS episodes are being uploaded on there with the handle @TheShowOnX in case you were ever craving watching a 20 minute conservative sitcom on your phone as you scroll through memes. The debut episode of THE POTWINS is called “Blue Caller” and it’s a comedy of errors where an idiotic liberal gay couple is suing Nate Potwin when a misunderstanding leads them to believe Nate is violating their constitutional rights by denying them service at his hardware store. Has the whole world gone mad? (This is literally a line from the show.)

For a wholesome Valentine’s Day message, we turn to the Christian denomination most versed in the art of love: the Jehovah’s Witnesses. We love any opportunity to repeat our hot take that the Jehovah’s Witnesses (JWs) are the best filmmakers in all of Christianity; their productions are high quality, their actors are poised, and their branding and aesthetics are impeccable. We’ve learned through their films that the JWs absolutely HATE working long hours (because it disrupts their religious routine). They have ultra conservative social views and do not fraternize with LGBT people or really anyone at all who promotes worldly values that contradict “The Truth”. Family is important to them; in fact, even older teens must run all of their life and relationship decisions through their parents. The dating lives of JW teens are just one of the many topics covered in WHAT IS TRUE LOVE?, a film primarily about teenage infatuation and how it must be controlled by leaning on Jehovah. Protagonist Liz becomes “interested” in Zach, a classmate at her high school who has recently converted to JW, but is terribly disappointed when her parents refuse to allow them to date due to the fact that Zach is unbaptized and “high risk”. Liz’s fellow JW friend Meg ignores the red flags and begins dating Zach after Liz rejects him. Meg and Zach’s lives are completely ruined by this hasty decision to elope, which causes disgrace to their families and friends and threatens the couple’s chances at eternal life. Meanwhile, the prudent Liz gets another chance at love when a chance encounter with the hunky John makes her believe that he could one day become her “spiritual head”. A happy ending is only possible through Jehovah, and here at Boys’ Bible Study we love happy endings!

All of your friends and family who are much better than you have been raptured, yet you’re stuck here alone on earth. If you look out the window right now, it’s highly likely you’ll observe thermonuclear war. It’s never been more over for you… or is it? A transmission from the LEFT BEHIND cinematic universe might be just the kick you need to get you inspired to make the most of your life post-rapture. Marketed as a piece of genuine found footage from a church group, HAVE YOU BEEN LEFT BEHIND? sells itself as a VHS tape providing life advice for those “left behind”, but it’s actually a cleverly staged y2k era viral marketing stunt for the LEFT BEHIND series of books and films. On the tape, a Pastor Vernon Billings warmly greets the viewer, telling them they have another chance to find salvation in this life — but eagle-eared LEFT BEHIND fans might recognize this pastor as a minor character from the series. The VHS tape jacket and contents leave some hints to this connection, but this interesting artifact of Christian ARG marketing has still fooled a lot of people over the years into believing it’s genuine. The Bible Boys discuss the tape’s take on rapture theology and also take time to investigate LEFT BEHIND: ETERNAL FORCES, the now-defunct Christian real-time strategy PC game also based on the famous series.
