'So Fades the Light' Review: Indie Thriller Explores a Former Cult Member's Trauma
Raise your hand if you carry trauma from a religious upbringing. In a divided America where citizens aggressively repel and cling to organized religion, commentary on extremism is prevalent in entertainment: Based on harrowing true-crime stories, Hulu's 2022 series Under the Banner of Heaven (which highlights a fundamentalist Utah sect of the LDS religion) and the 2025 Tribeca stunner Sovereign (which offers a peek into the Bible-thumping far-right world of the sovereign citizen movement) both examine the weight and devastating consequences of disturbingly cult-like radical teachings. Now writer-director Rob Cousineau and co-director Chris Rosik enter the ring with So Fades the Light.
