‘Shadow of God’ Trailer Teases Holy Twist on Exorcism Horror Ahead of April Release

Arriving just ahead of Easter is the new exorcism horror movie Shadow of the God, which appears to introduce a new twist in the trailer that debuted this morning: an elite exorcist realizes he may be dealing with a holy entity.

Shadow of God will debut on Shudder on April 11, 2025, as part of its Halfway to Halloween lineup.

In the film, “When several of his fellow Vatican exorcists are simultaneously killed, Father Mason Harper returns to his childhood home to spend time with childhood friend while he awaits orders from the Church. However, this small town holds dark secrets about Mason’s past and the religious organization once run by his father, Angus. Thought dead, Angus reappears, forcing a reunion between father and son. But Angus is different now, and before long, Mason suspects he’s possessed, not by the devil, but by something… holy. When Mason attempts to exorcise the presence from his father, he sets off a chain of events that may end in a cataclysm of biblical proportions testing everything he holds sacred.”

Mark O’Brien (Arrival, Ready or Not), Jacqueline Byers (Prey for the Devil), and Shaun Johnston (Heartland, Wynona Earp) star in Shadow of God.

Michael Peterson (Lloyd the Conqueror) directed the upcoming horror film from a script by Tim Cairo (Lowlife).

Peterson previously said in a statement, “We’ve made an exorcist film that adds new elements to the genre while also honoring its traditions. It was incredible watching this amazing cast and crew bring this fearless script to life. A creative dream come true.”

Producers include Peterson, Kendall Anglian, David Hiatt, Kurtis David Harder, and Taylor Nodrick. Executive producers include Smith, Cairo, and Brendon Halloran.
