Horror Vault's take

Set against the final years of one of America's most notorious killers, No Man of God charts the strange and deeply uncomfortable bond that develops between an FBI analyst and a man on death row. The film unfolds almost entirely in dialogue, daring viewers to sit with the disquieting charisma of a monster and the toll that prolonged exposure takes on those tasked with understanding him. It is less concerned with the crimes themselves than with the psychological chess match played across a prison table. Equal parts character study and slow-burn thriller, it raises troubling questions about empathy, evil, and what it costs to stare into the abyss.
