A lot of people have forgotten how settlers did get sick in the Wild West. There were a lot of ways to get infected and die besides being on the wrong end of a rifle. Killing Faith is a movie about folks on the old prairie getting sick except with a supernatural twist. The film stars DeWanda Wise (Jurassic World Dominion), Guy Pierce (The Matrix & Priscilla Queen of the Desert) and Bill Pullman (Independence Day). The movie comes out in theaters this weekend.
