Video round-up: David! The Carpenter's Son!
Samuel sings in Hebrew while anointing David, and a presumably demonic figure torments the teenaged Jesus, in two new clips from upcoming films.
Two clips from very different Bible-themed films popped up yesterday.
First, we have this clip of Samuel singing in Hebrew as he anoints David, from the upcoming animated film David (coming to theatres December 19):
And second, we have this clip of a presumably demonic figure tormenting the teenaged Jesus and attacking Joseph, from the upcoming horror film The Carpenter’s Son (coming to theatres November 14):
Both clips are pretty brief and atmospheric (in different ways!), so there isn’t a whole lot to say about them. I do like the look of David, and I am intrigued by Joseph’s statement—in The Carpenter’s Son—that he has seen the demonic figure “before”.
So, these clips are doing a good job of piquing my interest in both films!
