The Reaping
 

After watching the previews for this, I admit I'm curious. I'm a sucker for the catholic church horror films and always like that evil type of thing. This one seems a bit different, the evil is actually coming from god, and I have to admit I have a fear that, like so many movies lately, it's going to degenerate into some kind of preachy, don't be gay and have abortions and this wouldn't happen, drivel. Anybody else getting a different feeling? At least Mel isn't directing so there's some hope that it will just be a 4 horsemen kind of tale.

I can hear the pitch now "it's like seven, but with the 10 plagues - it's 3 better!"

HAHAHA! I love it.

Just watched the trailer for this and it looks pretty interesting so i will see this.The Director has done some good work in the past , he has helmed some Turkeys too however,i do like the look of this though.

Well this has got me interested. Sounds good to me. It has the same general character, woman loses faith etc etc but it might work due to an interesting plot. I also quite like the religious horror films so will probably check this one out. Shame I couldnt get trailer to work on this silly computer cant wait to get my own computer sorted, will keep looking for trailer.

I am eagerly anticipating the release. I dig the whole wrath of God thing... it does frighten me... I was formerly a hardcore atheist but no longer.

I'm an atheist so this doesn't "scare" me any more than a zombie flick. It does look pretty good, though.

I'm not a believer either, to be honest, but I'm fascinated with the religious good vs. evil movies. I also watch way more of the Secrets of the Bible and all that than most Christians. I find the whole concept absolutely fascinating.

You don't have to be religious to find movies with a religious basis scary. You'd lose Exorcist, Omen, The Prophecy, countless others. I'm looking forward to this one...

Not a believer either. But the trailer looks good. One of my phobias is insects - not spiders. Eight legs is OK, six legs is just horrible. So a plague of locusts is like a real fear factor for me. I can't even watch that Indiana Jones scene with the cockroaches! :eek:
