Penance: As entertaining as flaming enema
Platypuschow18 April 2023
Plot

Latinnials usurp their conversion therapy class and take their justice.

Cast

Though they did great, I didn't know anyone

Verdict

This confusing horror short is one of those short films that left me very much scratching my head.

As the whole thing is fleeting there is nothing I can say without spoiling it but to be fair it's not much in the way of a revelation.

Set in a church it sees a reverend preaching to a number of 20 somethings, eventually you see that all is not as it seems and in the darkest way possible. Then again this is the Catholic Church so no maybe not the absolute darkest but still pretty bad.

Standing at around 3 minutes it's disturbing and entirely pointless, what exactly was I supposed to take away from this? Was there a deeper meaning? Hard pass.

Breakdown + Pro LGBT Anti-Religion.........I think
  • Senseless and just not enjoyable in the slightest


Rants

Can this be a thing? That every person preaching religion with its lies, propaganda, hatemongering and bigotry gets such consequences to prevent them from doing so? I'm not calling for violence against the religious to be clear, I'm saying that we've become too soft and are protecting those who are responsible for the worlds ills. Maybe another approach is needed *Grabs garden shears*

parable
Kirpianuscus10 April 2020
Expression of angry, form of justice, piece of the war against Church , revenge, it gives beautiful photography, powerful message and the precise illustration of a fantasz. Short, a parable .
