This shot-on-video (SOV) horror film is a gory and campy, yet deeply profound meditation on Christian themes. An angel has sex with a human woman, and this perverted “immaculate conception” causes God to abandon the human race. There is no more death. Those who die stay awake in their current state, forever. Actress Stark Raven portrays Susan, one of the last of the living who encounters walking dead, preachers, and terrorists on her wandering journey to find her boyfriend. Along the way, many try to persuade her to take the plunge into the next phase of non-existence, but what is immortal life separated from God’s light? SHATTER DEAD is far from a Christian film, but it proves artistically that the absence of God is hell on earth. Our friend Nick Vance is the co-host of Cinematic Void podcast, and he shares our love of uniquely transgressive film experiences. Together, we wanted to introduce Boys’ Bible Study listeners to the wide world of SOV film, with SHATTER DEAD as a compelling point of entry. 🪞
