Gory, lurid, and ludicrous, this is a dark Action/Horror flick that delivers the goodies with bad taste and that's the way it should be. Were dealing with the Devil here not human scum. This has a very downbeat delivery. Is it possible to have Satan's return and the end of the world as we know it in any other way?
Sure it is rough and raunchy. Sure it is dark and dank. But it has a lot of gusto and gives all its got to make it a God-awful combination of Religious rantings and Spiritual significance. There is some dark humor and the cast is holding its own against an onslaught of high-tech special effects and low-brow belief systems.
Gabriel Byrne steals the show with the best lines and sinister behavior. The action is non-stop and it takes itself rather seriously, because this isn't Monty Python, it is Arnold action and millennial madness, through Biblical prophecy and for that it is a guilty pleasure of over-the-top revelatory ridiculousness.
