The Epiphany (2025)

“The Epiphany” is a gripping 2025 thriller that explores the dark intersection between crime, religion, and personal trauma. Directed by William Eubank and written by Katie Lovejoy and Ru Sommer, the film centers around a veteran Philadelphia detective who is pulled back into his painful history with the Catholic Church while tracking down a dangerous serial killer. The narrative unfolds through a series of chilling discoveries, emotional confrontations, and haunting flashbacks that reveal the detective’s own unresolved past.

Sylvester Stallone delivers a powerful performance in the lead role, portraying a man whose professional duty forces him to confront the very institution that shaped, betrayed, and scarred him. As more victims turn up—each connected to a past church scandal—the detective must navigate both the labyrinth of lies within the Church and his internal struggle to reconcile his faith and his pursuit of justice.

Eubank’s direction keeps the atmosphere tense and layered, using shadows, silence, and symbolism to highlight the psychological weight the characters carry. The film does not shy away from controversial themes, handling them with a balanced narrative that poses moral questions while driving the suspense.
