The Lock In
In the spring of 2010, a church lock in at First Baptist Church was organized by Pastor Chris. In the first hour of the lock in, one of the students, Justin, had an unusual “incident” and was “inconsolable.” It was reported that he calmed down and kept to himself for the remainder of the event. Two days after the lock in, Justin reportedly broke down to his parents that he experienced something “evil” at the lock in. He also claimed he captured everything on tape. After watching the footage, the parents met with church leaders to discuss criminal charges they were considering filing against the church for child endangerment, neglect and torture.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Pastor Peterson (Anthony Hackett) gets a phone call from someone who he had counseled years ago and whose life was subsequently ruined. The caller claims to have kidnapped the son and forces the pastor via phone to do things. Most of the film consists of the pastor talking on the phone with many close-ups of Anthony Hackett who also wrote, directed, and produced the film after handing out communion wafers no doubt. He was nice enough to claim GOD inspired the film and also came down to earth to be his executive producer. It showed as the acting and dialogue were GOD awful. There was a decent scene about 45 minutes into the film when two people walked, (I should have taken the hint.) but other than that, watching a guy talk on the phone for over an hour, is what you are going to get.The intent of the film is to demonstrate that forgiveness makes for a lousy film.No swearing sex or nudity because GOD would not approve.

This is disgusting,who makes a movie saying inspired by God, executive producer God with this type of content. If I could have gone public when this movie was made to get it banned I would have. This is disgusting, I don't care how this movie ends but to have a mother kill herself and a baby killed and use God's name in this....how disgusting are you people. I have never been so disgusted by a movie in my life, and I have watched A lot of movies. I seems I need more lines to post this, what more can a person say besides .... Are you trying to win souls for God, or turn souls away from God...murder and suicide in Gods name....seriously....seriously?..again...seriously
