Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

usually i do not bother to write reviews but i am writing this since its is astonishing that this movie has such a low rating. it definitely deserves at least a 7 on an average. PLEASE Don't GO FOR THE LOW RAITNGS. IT IS A MUCH MUCH BETTER MOVIE! i cant call it is the best movie i have ever seen but these low ratings are terribly misleading. i wonder how come this movie has such a low rating! it is a well made movie and if you like horror movies u are likely to enjoy it. i am damn sure that it deserves a better rating.it is not boring for even a moment.the story goes so fast and sustains your curiosity every scene. give it a try, and the low ratings are misleading.its not as bad as you might think. it is a very enjoyable movie. it appears to be a very different type of story.it does not have the pomp of a big budget movie. day before yesterday i watched it in wb movies and unfortunately missed the last 3 mins or so. waiting for a re telecast so that i can catch it.

I've collected most (if not all) the original Saint Sinner comics from when Marvel Comics released them as part of Clive Barker's 'Razorline' collection. The original comics is about a boy in the modern age who unwittingly gets possessed by a demon, and then an angel, having both torment him and try to guide him. He becomes a self-made Saint, 'I come to you, you are my court of last resort', whose miracles always have a positive and a negative side, whether he wishes them to or not. Creative, amazing, and would have made an excellent television series.This movie is not that series. It has nothing to do with this series. The only thing that this movie has to do with the original Saint Sinner is the title, and that Clive Barker wrote the screenplay.The movie is about a monk coming from the past to the present, to hunt down two succubi he happened to unleash upon the world. The succubi are over-the-top, and grotesque. The monk is unbelievable (though passable). The plot is horrible, jerky, and makes absolutely no sense. There is a 'clock' fade between scenes, saying what time it is, but not explaining why this is important to the flow of the movie. Characters do the stupidest things, and honestly, the ending was not satisfactory in the slightest.Do not rent this movie. Do not watch this movie. Go, read the comics, and think wistfully about what may have been.

In 1815, the curious monk Tomas Alcala (Greg Serano) releases two evil female succubi called Munkar (Mary Mara) and Nakir (Rebecca Harrell) from a prison with the shape of a sculptured ball. The demons kill his brother eating his arm and escapes to the Twenty-First Century using a weird device stored in the monastery. Tomas is marked on his hand by a dagger, and the priests understand that, in accordance with God's wish, this would mean that he would be a saint and should travel in time to destroy the succubi, using the dagger as a kind of compass to direct him towards the demons. In the present days, he is helped by detective Rachel Dressler (Gina Ravera), who is grieving the loss of her father and believes on his words. Meanwhile, the two evil demons are feeding themselves of blood of human beings and fighting against Tomas and Rachel. I have just seen this movie on cable television and certainly it is above average. It has a reasonable screenplay and good special effects. The cast is not bad, but something is missing to be a good or excellent movie. Maybe with a better lead actor, and some more fun in the scenes of the two succubi might improve the story. Anyway, I am a great fan of horror movies and I found `Saint Sinner' a worthwhile entertainment, specially considering that it is made for TV. I do not know why most of the present horror movies uses the expression `God's Plan'. As far as I know, the Catholic Church does not have this cliché, but it is used in many stories to designate what God expects from a character or situation. Does God have a plan for the humankind? I find this expression not appropriated, but maybe it is my misunderstanding of language or lack of knowledge of religion. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): `O Santo Pecador' (`The Saint Sinner')

This movie is neither worth the cheap rental-quality disk it was printed on, nor the time spent to watch it. Fortunately I got some other domestic duties done while watching this flick; unfortunately, I paid 2,55 euros to rent it. Utter waste.¡¡¡COULD CONTAIN SPOILERS!!! Many of the faults of this film are pointed out in other comments, lack of acting, a story that appears to have come from a brainstorming session in a twisted-kid-only kindergarten class and horrible film-making to name a few. It's about 2 succubae who escape their imprisonment and manage to travel in time.Now, the succubus, on top of being a wise old demon, is supposed to be a sexy seductress, or at least as far as I have always known. You know, one that cleverly lures you with her sultry beauty, and eventually knocks you over the head (or whatever) and sucks the life out of you.
So now being established what they are supposed to be, why are they disgusting slimy hags that are also dumb as rocks?And then we can start in on the priest/monk/some-sort-of-religious-trainee that gets sent to kill these beasts (and calling them beasts is very generous). Since the succubae couldn't even agree on whether this guy was a priest or monk, I'll just roll them up together, conserve the pronunciation, and call him a punk. Which is exactly what he is. He is the only demon slayer that can't even take out two stupid dogs (the succubae) while they are practically lying on their backs sleeping. Couldn't he have practiced with that thing a little before setting out?And the victims of the succubae, also well described in other comments: dumber than anyone. I was so mad I was wishing for this whole city of idiots to crumble under its own incompetence and fall straight down to the Inferno, taking the film crew with it.
I was going to give this movie 1 out of 10, simply because it had some gross effects, but when the only horror I experience is from thinking that people spent time, energy and money on making this film, and that I spent money to watch it, it just takes away all merit. 0 out of 10, for what would be more aptly named "Killer Hookers from Hell"
