The Prophecy: Forsaken

Well, this 5th film continues from the 4th - and parts 4 and 5 has very little to do with the original trilogy.

This film is a time waster - watch it on TV if it comes on but don't bother renting or buying this one.

2/10.

Filmed back-to-back with the last Prophet sequel, this one picks up right where "The Prophecy: Uprising" left off. Kari Wuhrer is still in possession of a mystical book that both angels from heaven and demons from hell want. I found the previous sequel mildly diverting, and Wuhrer is a b-movie actress ("Anaconda" "Beastmaster 2" "G- Men from Hell") who I've always liked, but I found this sequel rather dull. The low- budget film is competently made from a technical standpoint, but the story here wan't all that clever or interesting. No real reason to watch this film unless you feel compelled to watch all five of The Prophecy films. Jason Scott Lee and Tony Todd also appear in the film.

This fifth film in the Prphecy series picks up the tale of the secret battles between hell,heaven,and earth caught between them. Allison (kahri Wuhrer) now possesses the Lexicon. An ancient text that can reveal when the Antichrist will appear. But renegade angels are on the hunt for the book. Her only hope may be a mysterious assassin named Dylan (Jason Scott Lee) Alright you guys get the gist of the story well here is what I thought personally I lost interest in this series after the second film....So...some of you may disagree with me...I felt this film was a bit slow and boring the acting was decent enough although I thought that Kahri Wuhrer's character could have been better written but the story fell flat in many spots...I thought that they didn't give you enough details to make this film interesting...one minute of back story at the beginning just wasn't enough to delve me into this story.. Although I did find the brief explanation on the different ranking of Angels interesting....Tony Todd delivers an excellent performance as an evil Angel bent on stopping Armagedon so that the Angels can be gods favorites. I give this film a sad 2 buckets of gore for the boring story the only thing that justifies this film is its decent acting

"The Prophecy: Forsaken" is a step down from "Uprising". The problem is that the movie is just too short. There's no reason for this movie to be 75 minutes. It had some good ideas and scenes but it didn't go anywhere. Kari Wuhrer once again plays Allison. She still has to stop renegade angels from getting the "The Lexicon". This book contains the access to destroy the earth. Jason Scott Lee and Tony Todd play characters who try to stop her.

Kari Wuhrer does a decent job as Allison. Jason Scott Lee was OK. Tony Todd was fun, but he goes over the top.

In the end: It could have been way better. It's worth seeing once just to complete the series.

This movie begins with a brief flashback to the previous film in which "Father Constantin" (Boris Petroff) finds a long lost Biblical book which is called "The Lexicon". While he reads the book the prophecy of the end times begins to mysteriously appear and reveals the exact name of the anti-Christ before he assumes world domination. Realizing the importance of this book the angels loyal to God have placed a unique woman named "Allison" (Kari Wuhrer) in charge of protecting it from the rebellious angels led by "Stark" (Tony Todd) who want to prevent Armageddon because it would destroy the humans they hate so much. If that doesn't quite make sense I should also add that "Satan" (John Light) also wants to keep the book out of Stark's hands because he wants Armageddon to happen even though according to Revelation it means his end is at hand and he will soon be thrown into a lake of fire. Throw in an assassin named "Dylan" (Jason Scott Lee) who shoots himself in the head rather than kill Allison--and then goes about trying to kill Allison--and you can pretty much understand that this movie is a jumbled mess which makes no sense at all. That said, I recommend this film only to those who have seen and enjoyed the previous 4 movies in the series. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother with it. Below average.
