The Crucifixion
At first I was going to see My Little Pony, but I will admit I was a little embarrassed to be the only adult in the theater without a kid, especially since I grew up in a time when My Little Pony was a girls toy. So I went for the Crucifixion. It looked good, so I said I would prefer sitting in this theater.
It’s rare when I make these wrong choices. I’ve been in situations in which I wanted to see one movie, changed my mind and went to go see another and that movie turned out pretty well. This is not one of those times. I went though the film thinking I wish I went to see My Little Pony.
Not the most exciting film, it’s a horror mystery, that’s more mystery than horror and the mystery was not that interesting. It was about a faithless journalist trying to prove God is not real by doing a story about a Priest in jail for murder because an exorcism went wrong. Sounds like a good story. The setting of the movie also seemed good as it takes place in Romania, during a holiday that, according to the film is similar to Halloween, and when I herd this at the beginning of the film I was jazzed to watch a Halloween picture during the season. The Crucifixion shows a lot of elements of mystery and sexuality that makes if feel like a homage of Hammer Horror, but it falls a little short from become a classic of even a cult classic, real short.
