A must to view every Holy Week for your soul's sake
You have read the previous reviews praising this film. This film is so informative of what is happeing today that it should be watch every Holy Week. The reason is all too apparent. Checkout the sad events happening in the Christian Church. Is it true that the vile actions peak between Ash Wednesday and Easter? Does Satan and the Creator square off and choose their champions to fight to the death. What ever happens to the priests who lose? (My pasture did commit such a grieveous act and after being punished,he disappeared from sight.) This film should be raised to cult status. It is so important. We all know the Jesus was tempted in the desert by the devil. Was his temptation similar to what what was shown in the film? I personally believe His temptation was so intense that it was unimaginable. Jesus triumped over that dragon ,the devil.
Satan is one fine honey!!
I give two thumbs up for the costume design for Satan.
A Movie that Takes Itself too Seriously
O.K. I don't know what planet these other reviewers are from, but it seems they were watching a different movie. I agree that The Unholy is worth watching-I've seen it several times because it is so funny. I mean we've got priests calling from the dead-ON THE TELEPHONE, no less. My friend and I saw this back when we were in college and have been calling each other as Father Dennis ever since. This movie takes itself way to seriously-this is a great B flick, but certainly not all the raves I've read in these other reviews. If you're expecting an excellent film, the likes of Rosemary's Baby, don't bother. However, if you're looking for a fun, scary laugh, the likes of Carnosaur, then, by all means, check this one out!
I TOLD YOU IT WAS WORTH IT!
I recommended this movie highly(on the sales page for the film "Stormswept," which is a whole different animal). Of all of the horror movies I have seen, this one has always impressed me with its originality and weird characters. Not to mention, those religious movies are always a little spookier. The guaranteed scare from this film make it worth much more than the price to buy it. HORROR/SUSPENSE FANS ENJOY!
Fabulous
Father Michael, (Ben Cross), has been appointed the pastor of St. Agnes church in New Orleans. He is out to battle The Unholy, a demon that only manifests itself on the Easter Vigil. Father Michael must overcome temptation and the devil himself in order to save his soul. An excellent movie that will keep you glued to your seats. Totally scary beyond belief. If you love horror, you'll love this movie.
