There is a recent trend of biblical and faith based movies that I find interesting. In the span of three months we have four high-profile films featuring faith in God. Let’s take a closer look at each one of these movies and their themes.
Is this a direct response to the glut of zombie, witchcraft and vampire films that flooded the theaters two years ago.
The first up is Son of God. It’s in theaters now. It is retelling of the story of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection. The team that created the Bible blockbuster mini-series crafted this one. Take a look at the trailer.
See who is up next.

Paramount goes to the Old Testament for the next big story.
The next one that is due is Noah, Strangely enough there was a headline story in The Hollywood Reporter this morning.
The studio has released internal research and “strongly disputes” a Variety story.

The studio also took the rare step of criticizing a media outlet for publicizing that survey. The film hits theaters March 28.
