The Believers, a horror film directed by John Schlesinger was released in 1987. Martin Sheen, Robert Loggia and Helen Shaver are among the actors in this movie.
After the accidental death of his wife by electrocution, Cal Jamison (Martin Sheen) moves to New York City, where a rash of brutal, ritualistic child murders, supposedly committed by members of a Hispanic cult practicing a malevolent version of Santeria have been confounding the NYPD. Things take a turn for the worse when the cult targets Jamison's son.
