Well, I guess “Night Court“ royalties aren’t what they used to be.
Harry Anderson, of the before mentioned “Night Court,” and Jay Picket, of “General Hospital” fame, are joining forces against that lie from the pit of hell, the “theory” of evolution.
Their new creationist film, a “Matter of Faith,” is due out this summer and is sure to be a blockbuster … in Tulsa.
Watch the trailer here:
Semi-hot Christian Rachel, one of the “cutest freshman” on campus, is worrying her father. After one semester of college, she’s got all these crazy ideas about science.
From their webpage:
“A Christian girl, Rachel Whitaker (Jordan Trovillion) goes off to college for her freshman year and begins to be influenced by her popular Biology professor (Harry Anderson) who teaches that evolution is the answer to the origins of life. When Rachel’s father, Stephen Whitaker (Jay Pickett) senses something changing with his daughter, he begins to examine the situation and what he discovers catches him completely off guard. Now very concerned about Rachel drifting away from her Christian faith, he tries to do something about it!”
Rachel, you bitch. Stop changing. Stop worrying your father with your book learnin’.
This film is gonna be a hard-hitting drama for sure. I mean, listen to that music! Look at those faces fraught with personal dilemma. “Do I turn to the Bible for my science lesson? Or do I continue to be influenced by my hip biology teacher that brought a rubber chicken to class? I mean, he’s so hip. Who does that?”
If you want to see “A Matter of Faith,” you’ll have to travel quite a ways — unless you live in Oklahoma and Missouri. According to the film’s webpage, those are the only places it’s going to be shown. Missouri and Oklahoma. Color me shocked. Also, if you click on the webpage and look under the endorsements section, you’re greeted with a modest “coming soon” headline. Another thing to be taking on faith, I guess.
“A Matter of Faith” is another in a long sting of “Christian” movies to hit theaters lately. Many play on the idea that evangelicals are somehow being persecuted for their beliefs. Michael Musto reported on this for TheBlot in February. According to Musto, if we must have biblical films, dealing with “a succession of hot bodies in skimpy robes is never an all-bad thing.”
