Nicolas Cage's Jesus-inspired horror movie The Carpenter's Son probably won't make it into rotation for Christmas movie marathons in the future. The 2025 blockbuster, which was written and directed by filmmaker Lotfy Nathan, loosely adapts lesser-known and disputed stories of Jesus Christ's teenage years into a brutal and bloody tale about the religious figure (A Quiet Place Part II and The Night Manager's Noah Jupe) and his family on the run from demonic forces. In The Carpenter's Son, Jesus is desperate for answers over whether the man who raised him (Cage) is his true father.
