The Passion...
is the passion of the christ a horror? its the sickest shit i think i've ever seen. apologies if this has been debated
|
I wouldn't call it horror. Definatley a exploitation flick. I loved the ending cause it set the stage for Christ II: Holy Devistation.
Definatley fucked up and gory.... doubt the studios would back a horror flick doing the same shit budget/distro-wise. |
surely with all the hype and recent popularity in torture movies this has to be a horror. not only that but the daddy of the torture movie sub-genre. its very realistic and, depending on your personal beliefs, a re-enactment. i always prefer horror movies that stem from actual events

Doesn't really depend on your beliefs, at least most of it. Whether or not he is your savior is your belief but regardless of your feelings on religion a man was beaten, tortured, and killed. |
I wouldn't call it horror. But then, I don't count torture films as horror either.
I find the film hugely overrated. The only part of the film I found good was the end when ** SPOILER ** Mary looks directly at the camera. Her look speaks volumes and actually hushed the audience in the cinema. I then found that the shot was practically lifted as-is from Ingmar Bergmans 'Summer with Monika'. |
Christian belief or not, I think everyone should see the film to see what one man was put through for what he believed in...and that was common practice back then...it's def a disturbing film...I didn't like the sub titles, but got used to them...people were crying in the theater when I saw it with my grandfather...he didn't like it all.
