Resurrection Man

About This Movie

Resurrection Man dives into the dark underbelly of 1970s Belfast, where the atmosphere is thick with tension and dread. Victor Kelly, a Protestant youth driven by blind hatred, spirals into a disturbing world of violence against Catholics. The film’s pacing is almost hypnotic, pulling you deeper into Victor’s madness alongside the relentless reporter trying to make a name for himself amid the chaos. The practical effects, while not over the top, convey a raw and visceral reality. Performances are gritty and quite absorbing, particularly the lead, who embodies the turmoil of a tormented mind. It’s distinctive for its unflinching exploration of sectarian violence and moral ambiguity, leaving you with a lingering sense of discomfort.
