Brett McCracken Reviews Jesus Camp
If Jesus Camp could be characterized as a genre film, I’d sooner label it horror than documentary. From the very outset and throughout its 80-some minutes, the mood is foreboding, with dirge-like music and stormy skies mixed with images of seven-year-olds speaking in tongues. The film is about a Midwestern summer camp for cute, little Christian preteens, and yet it comes across like Children of the Corn meets The Blair Witch Project.
Or so the filmmakers hope. (read the review)

This was not one that we could have expected to do real well at Cannes from the beginning now is it?
