This film has not yet been reviewed. Check back later for the complete review here on FilmThreat.com. Synopsis: WORLD PREMIERE – The first testament says “an eye for an eye.” The second testament says “love thy neighbor.” The third testament…KICKS A*s!
The filmmaking team that won the “Spirit of Slamdance” prize in 2000 with the short, “Harry Knuckles and the Treasure of the Aztec Mummy,” returns to the Lounge and ups the ante with this tale of the ultimate action hero: Jesus Christ.
The second coming is upon us, and Jesus has returned to earth. But before he can get down to the serious business of judging the living and the dead, he has to contend with an army of vampires that can walk in the daylight.
Combining kung-fu action with biblical prophecy and a liberal dose of humor, the film teams the Savior with Mexican wrestling hero El Santos against mythological horrors and science gone mad. It also manages to address contemporary sexual politics. And did we mention that it’s a musical? This sure ain’t Sunday School.
