God is a Monster
Gabriel McKee on sin and redemption in Cloverfield. The Revealer editors were reminded by a recent viewing of I Am Legend that horror and sci-fi movies are often the best religion journalism around -- documenting popular religious ideas, and fears, most of us lack the courage to express in more sober venues. For a full-on film festival, add to your Cloverfield reading "Godzilla, Born Again" and "The Last Man on Earth: A Romance," by The Revealer's Kathryn Joyce. Then visit McKee's SF Gospel blog for further adventures in the religion of science fiction.
