They Passion is pure gothic - torture, sadism, demonic visitations...unless, of course, you find it difficult to disconnect from the religious theme for some reason...?

The Passion of the Christ is DEFINITELY OVERRATED!
But, as a horror movie, it is underrated. It's a good horror film, lousy anything else film.
I totally agree with AndyK on this one.
Talk about the unnecessary violence! After watching this steaming pile, I read the scenes over as they were depicted in the first 4 books of the New Testament ... and the whipping scene is in none of them. And only ONE mentions that he was whipped. And it is a small mention ... like "after he was scourged, they hauled him away" (or something like that, I don't have my Bible handy.) But the movie spends about 10-15 minutes on this scene alone! There is NO way that a human being could have been tortured like that and survive (let alone have the strength to haul a big-ass cross all over town.) No, Mel Gibson uses this scene simply to shock his audience with violence, blood and gore (and the Christians love it! What the fuck is that all about??)

On the movies andy mentioned.................I forgot about Theatre Of Blood! I can't believe no one has brought that one up before!
Excellent Vincent Price movie............and Phantom of the Paradise is a cult classic. The Ninth Configuration is cool.............but there are things that bug me about it. E3 was very good, as was Predator. Don't look now.....one of the creepiest movies ever I think!
The Passion.........haven't seen it.....not interested.
KK...........hope you inherited my good taste too.........lol! ;)

What's getting me is that a lot of the people who are cumming all over themselves claiming to have had their faith restored by this film are the same people who got offended and protested Scorcesse's "The Last Temptation Of Christ". Scorcesse's film focused on Christ's life and his human qualities while all Gibson's film does is dwell on his death (to say nothing of looking like a Nazi propaganda film). Says a lot about the masochistic nature of religeon.
