Just so...so bad

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

I usually don't write comments on here, but I thought that this movie was so bad that I had to alert fellow movie lovers that this is NOT a movie to watch. The movie contains bad acting, bad directing, bad everything. The movie drags on and at some points you can't help but fast forward.Christina Ricci's acting is so bad that you can only laugh at some parts LOL. At least pick a hotter chick if you're going to make such a bad film. I heard Megan Fox wasn't a good actor, but I automatically go deaf when she appears on the screen.I gave this movie a 1 out of 10 and I'd rather have a case of swine flu then watch this again.

This horror film deals with a church that is buried beneath the earth and it has a scene which depicts Jesus Christ being hung on a cross and their is a large crowd of people who just simply watch and do nothing to try to prevent this murder. Cassie Grant, (Christina Ricci) who is driving her car and runs into a young girl named Marion Kirkman, (Kerry Fox) and Cassie takes care of Marion who has amnesia and cannot remember just who she is. As the film progresses, Marion begins to see many people in the local town who just stare at her and she becomes very close friends with Cassie Grant's children and begins to see that these children are in grave danger from these people who just wander all around and simply just staring and watching every move that they make. There is a deep meaning to this film and it is not just an ordinary horror film but deals with a religious Bible story.

This was kind of an interesting movie, not much about it was original.Essentially, a church is found that dates back to the first century, and was made by Joseph of Aramatea (I have this image of the Castle Arrgghhhh) that had a bas-relief of the witnesses to the Crucifixion, who are cursed forever to go around and witness all the other disasters in history. Okay, you got that. Nothing original here, we saw this before in the Seventh Sign with Demi Moore (Witness to the Crucifixion doomed to immortality) and a buried Church (Those two attempts at Exorcist prequels.) One of these watchers (Ricci) is hit by a car by a distracted mother (again, why is this so popular in British-made horror? Are your roads really that bad?) and forgets that she is a watcher, but she still has visions of impending disaster.Not knowing she is one of these condemned, she attempts to prevent the impending disaster of a disgruntled village outcast preparing a terrorist attack against his neighbors. She does, at personal cost, and is forgiven and allowed to go to heaven.Now, exactly why hasn't this occurred to these people in the previous 2000 years? Why is the Big Guy such a jerk that he'd condemn these people to such a punishment? This is not a bad little film. Nothing original, but enjoyable to watch.

An interesting theme, another film touching on dark or forgotten corners of religion. The slowly developing plot is shot in an uninspiring film location, but I guess that's to prevent a 'dynamic Hollywood' overkill. There is not too much firepower (good) but there are plenty of moments where any viewer would be bored in what is supposed to be thrilling.And then there is Cassy. Running around saying 'you must BELIEVE me / no get away here, it's dangerous / Michael are you OK?' she may be the right actress for the 'watch out Bambi, behind you' type of role. From the first moment I think she is the weakest link in the movie (sorry Christine fans). Her acting is a misfit in terms of motion and emotion. But I guess she can do better than this, I'm sure that any male viewer would give here that chance to prove it(here you go, fans)All in all I will surely remember the interesting plot.
