As Ezekiel becomes convinced the family has been touched by divine omens and messages from God himself, tensions mount with the more pragmatic Sarah over the source of the unexplained phenomena they witness. Healed wounds, flowering fields, and beautiful melodies seem proof of heavenly blessing at first. Yet disturbing...

Mysterious are the ways of the Lord, but devious those of His opposite number in “Thine Ears Shall Bleed.” This enterprising first feature from Ben Bigelow recalls “The Witch” in placing another pious pioneer family at the mercy of the elements — and apparent occult forces — during an early chapter of American history.

Nonetheless, it’s an indie sufficiently polished to attract viewers looking for offbeat genre fare that’s relatively restrained in graphic horror content. It releases to U.S. digital platforms July 9, with the U.K. following on the 15th.
