Sin Eater is a low-budget 2022 Supernatural Thriller written and directed by Carmelo Chimera, and starring Jessie Nerud, Danny Bohnen, and Scotty Bohnen.Outside the isolated rural town of Gideon, young drifter Christine (Nerud) picks up a dazed and injured woman by the side of the road. When she offers to take her to the hospital, the woman panics and causes the car to wreck. The woman is killed on impact and Christine is badly injured.With a smashed face, a broken jaw, and no phone or car, Christine has no choice but to take up residence at the home of town Sherriff Isaac (Danny Bohnen) and his father Abraham (Scott Moore), the local Minister, until she recovers and gets herself some transportation out of this town. Her only contact outside the Sherriff's home is local nurse Elijah (Scotty Bohnen), who checks in on her periodically.As Christine recuperates, it's not long before she becomes aware of how strange Gideon is. The local church practices a strange amalgam of Christianity and local Pagan traditions. And Abraham, while kindly for the most part, is vaguely menacing in his beliefs. As she overhears snatches of arguments between the three men, she starts to wonder what's going on, what kind of "ritual" is forthcoming, and what they might have planned for her.The strange sights and sounds she soon begins to notice don't help either. Is she going stir crazy in this small isolated town? Or is something supernatural going on? And how safe is she?

comment
Sibling Rivalry: While not blood siblings, Isaac and Elijah are constantly at odds with each other for Abraham's approval as his successor. Unfortunately for both of them, Azazel doesn't think either of them is worthy to lead.

Downer Ending

comment
Downer Ending: While possessing Christine, Azazel declares Elijah, the only person even remotely nice to Christine, to be the "weak one of the herd," and the chosen sacrifice. How much influence Christine has over this choice is unclear.

Facial Horror: Christine's smashed-in face is shown in nauseating detail in the aftermath of the car accident. Afterwards her face is covered in bruises and her mouth is sealed shut with a tangle of metal wires.

Stepford Smiler: Abraham, Isaac, and Elijah are all very outwardly pleasant. But they're all very clearly more dangerous than they seem. Especially Isaac, who actually tries to force himself upon Christine at one point.
