But the organ and pews were moved to the barn like a make shift church. The last scene Loomis bows his head almost in prayer. If he let Caleb fall down the cliff that could bring on enough guilt for him to question the idea of punishment/redemption even if he's not sure what he believes. ...And then on this one we agree. OK. I re-watched that scene. Y'all are blowing smoke. She looks in the freezer and sees that the light inside it is working. (It's empty except for what look like a handful of pop sticks.) She goes into another room in the house, turning on lights as she goes. Then she goes out to the tool shed, and starts playing music on the organ. Loomis wanders in behind her, as she is playing. He sits down, watching her the whole time. He looks as if he feels a lot of pain and/or worry, with his hands together, and his face resting on them. To me, it doesn't look like he has all of a sudden become a believer, or started questioning whether he should be a believer. Instead, it looks like he is worried about his relationship with her and about the pain she is experiencing. He's worried about whether she believes him--especially after he had previously lied about the fact that he thought he had met her brother, and that he had killed the guy he thinks was her brother. All of that, whether he did kill him (or let him die by failing to help him), or Caleb really did leave.

A theory was Ejiofor had committed suicide after letting Pine go and had grown unhappy because Robbie would never love him at all. Hence he ends up in church as well. This theory is completely wrong. On that I am certain.

Yeah, I think the first time Caleb slipped, Loomis reacted instinctively thus saving him. But the second time Caleb slipped, Loomis thought about letting him fall, and he did. I doubt Ann would believe Caleb left without saying goodbye to her. I think she suspected the truth but didn't say anything because she possibly felt some guilt for inflaming the situation.
I'm impressed with Robbie's ability to imitate dialects. In The Wolf of Wall Street she sounded like a New Yorker. In Zachariah she sounded like a generic Southerner without going overboard with it.
