once again and i have been duped by seemingly intelligent reviews making seemingly intelligent comments about an obviously crappy movie. i actually put my shoes on and got in my car and burned expensive gasoline and drove to the nearest rental place after reading said reviews and paid the requisite 4 dollars and change to rent this thing. i am telling you and this one not worth the minuscule kilo calories spent on lifting one index finger to switch channels on a tv remote. i even gave it a few more minutes after seeing all the tell tale signs of a pedigree dog pile. these presented as clinical symptoms of a director who is a. going senile or and b. is only marginally interested in the film he or she is obligated to create. i saw similar deterioration with john carpenter string of ridiculous caricature over the past number of years. here are a couple of scenes as incriminating evidence. the priest is having a disturbing dream. supposedly a harbinger of nastiness to come since he seems hell bent on opening the archaeological feature which houses the demon. the dream is a goofy collage of disjointed images right out of the twilight zone stock footage. a ticking clock careens through the dream scape blackness implying and what. and the unfathomable mystery of time. big deal. a disembodied head and painted in demon features with convenience store quality halloween make up and flickers back and forth in a convulsive frenzy. every time i see this effect and a big fat rip off from jacob ladder and it pisses me off. this and in itself and almost instantly discredits a film. the whole build up of the archaeological dig itself is laughable. everything is so obvious. so tired and over wrought. the only possible response is boredom. at one point in the dig and the priest comments on finding the statues of angels surrounding a sarcophagus. theyre all pointing down toward the crypt with their weapons. he queries look at these surrounding statues. it as if they are holding. something. down. this is supposed to build tension. critical mass. but it doesn not even come close. how can there be suspense if you treat the audience like a bunch of morons having to explain the suspense as you go along. the imagery is over done in the first place but the added comments only add insult to injury in my opinion. soon thereafter and the tomb is decorated with the remains of the soldiers placed there to guard the main atrium (another shameless rip off of the keep and btw). who and for crying out loud and did the make up effects for this film. the blood actually had that pinkish quality one might see in 70 tromaville flicks. at this point i became almost convinced that they simply forgot the make up and had to go to wal mart in the interest of time and money. dont listen to glowing comments on this one. i will be keeping a suspicious eye on schrader too. looks like it might be time to hang up his gloves. perhaps a close friend will offer a gentle admonition to quit while there still dignity in memory of films gone by.
