Spewing forth random thoughts about religion in America. 8220;Missionary” horror film. A couple weeks back, students in my “Religion and American Popular Culture” read an essay I’ve published. On representations of Mormon missionaries in film. Basically, I identified four trends in the films:. Mormon missionaries provide a model for generic Christian evangelists (an association which should please Mormons, though I imagine evangelicals aren’t happy about it). Now someone has forwarded me the trailer to.
