I haven't seen any flicks made by Joe Castro, the director of this flick and by watching this flick, his first attempt I don't think I will ever do it again.This must be one of the worst acting I have seen so far and I'm in the scene from the early eighties. It's just like you go watching a stage play at school done by your children. Nothing moves and every actor just waits for his lines. The only name worth mentioning is Forrest J Ackerman, but even he can't save this cheesy flick. And I can even but the word camp to it. When Jesus is shown I could take it but suddenly he opens his mouth and he's a vampire, really, and watch his hand go up, he's got stigmata. The best thing and what makes it watchable is the demon itself. It's very well crafted and is really the best thing to see. It walks around even in it's nudies full frontal. That was a big surprise. And the explosion of a head is watchable too. But it is really a extreme low budget, vomiting and a snake going in a mouth is all done off screen. This is a flick that you just can't get it that it ever was released but if you are into camp or cheesy flicks then you will enjoy it. Really, the sleeve of the DVD and the demon itself are the best thing to watch.Gore 0/5 Nudity 1/5 Effects 0,5/5 Story 1/5 Comedy 0/5

This stupid, stupid religious horror film starts out with an arbitrary premise and goes precipitously downhill from there. Evidently there is some sort of demon that has been held captive for thousands of years, and for some unexplained reason it is set loose every thousand years. To stretch its legs, I suppose. One girl gathers together a bunch of devout college age believers to witness the demon and prevent its escape, and what we get is a ludicrous mess of a movie that does no justice to the enticing cover box, which should qualify as false advertisement.Let me tell you a little secret about that demon on the cover box, by the way. It is by leaps and bounds the most interesting thing that the movie has going for it, and it is literally on screen for less than one second. That should give you an idea of the intelligence level of the movie.I made the mistake of watching this disaster two days after watching The Passion of the Christ, arguably one of the most powerful religious films ever made, so when I saw Jesus with fangs in this movie I almost fell over backwards at the sheer, overwhelming dumbness of it all. Even without the fangs the guy who plays Jesus looked like some slob that got up off his couch just long enough to put on some sheets and make a pathetic attempt to play Jesus. This guy blew it that badly and he was only playing Jesus in some girl's nightmare. Then again, he fits right in with the rest of the actors, who deliver some staggeringly bad performances.One IMDb user makes the astounding claim that this movie is beautiful, then goes on to suggest that the acting is not as bad as other reviewers claim. Well, in that regard he's right.It's worse.

This film was SOOOOO boring that I couldn't even watch it with the fast forward held down firmly all the way through.The demon on the box cover was cool as hell ,but you only saw it for a MOMENT and then it walked out of frame BACKWARDS!Full of bad acting and TERRIBLE direction this movie sucks.

This movie was a disappointment. It appears as if some film students got together, had some great effects ideas (eg, Satan costume) and not that bad a story idea. The problem came when the actors were just plain old, bad. For the rental price it is OK for something to watch to pass the time, but not great for parties.
