Horror Vault's take

A veteran FBI agent finds himself with an unlikely partner — his own exceptionally gifted young son — as they race to track down a deeply disturbed killer who cloaks his monstrous acts in twisted religious conviction. The case grows increasingly urgent as the body count rises and the killer's apocalyptic logic becomes clearer. Equal parts procedural thriller and psychological study, the film probes how far faith can be warped into something truly terrifying.
