Them That Follow (2019) is a brooding Appalachian Gothic thriller that explores the high stakes of a fundamentalist Pentecostal community where faith is proven through the handling of venomous snakes. While the film features powerhouse performances, its slow-burn pace and familiar narrative beats have left critics divided. Performance Highlights
: Playing Hope Slaughter, Colman brings human complexity to a character that could have easily become a one-dimensional zealot.
: Delivers an intense and charismatic performance as Pastor Lemuel Childs, a man who commands his "mountaintop kingdom" with fire-and-brimstone fervor.
