Divine Intervention

A man calls himself Father Reynolds, he dresses like a monk from days past and arms himself with a crossbow and works for God to cleanse the Earth of sinners. The local teens don't stand a chance as they are fornicating, foul mouthed, drug takers. This film focuses on a group of teens fighting for survival.

Not a bad effort, but nothing really made it stand out from the crowd. Vic Clay plays the lead character and he is fine. Some of the teens are irritating, but get the job done.

There is one character, Mrs Donovan, who is clearly seen in an early scene. From that moment on, in every scene she is in, you never see her face. She is either talking off camera or her hair is over her face or an object obstructs the camera view. Was this a touch of the ED Wood's and the actress knew what she had let herself in for and decided to walk early on !!!!!! You decide.

Not scary, but does have some gore, mainly of the crossbow variety.

Not really much else to say about this one

This movie is clearly low-budget, which is obvious in the final product. But cheap movies can be entertaining. Not this one. It tries to paint everyone as a sinner, but makes virtually every character so loathsome that you want to cheer on the killer. But the killer is just a sad zealot with a crossbow and the most terrifying lateral lisp on celluloid. He's not funny, or intriguing nor interesting, and he has a sidekick who has even less personality. There's no logic to any of it, and characters flip sides on a dime without reason.

The one decent character (and actress) is the one who plays the older sister, but by the time she gets involved, the viewer is too numb to care. It's literally sex and drugs and profanity, but no plot or skill. There's a character who is supposed to be an ex-con and who talks like every member of a cheap prison flick, but who looks like a middle-aged accountant. It's actually jatrring to hear him speak.

The ending is completely predictable, but then, so is the rest of the movie. Why this was made is puzzling; why it was released is baffling.
