'Come Out In Jesus Name'
The documentary “Come Out In Jesus Name” stirred controversy and garnered substantial criticism but drew thousands of Americans to theaters across the nation to watch the work of deliverance ministries.
With several encore showings following its release, the film follows the deliverance ministry work of Pastors Greg Locke, Alexander Pagani, Isaiah Saldivar, Mike Signorelli, Vladimir Savchuck and Daniel Adams.
The movie features the testimony of Locke, a formerly self-described cessationist who now embraces the gifts of the Holy Spirit and encourages Christians to embrace their authority in Jesus to free themselves and others of demonic oppression.
After the film's initial release, moviegoers flooded social media with posts sharing accounts of oppression being released in theaters. Similar accounts were shared following the encore showings.
"Come Out in Jesus Name" was initially released for two days only and soared to No. 5 at the box office to be among the highest-grossing films on its release day. The film received a 97% Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score and delivered its second-highest per-screen average during its encore.
