Night of the Living Angels.

Legion.

God is pissed off at us, why, cause he got sick of all the bullshit. These are the opening and closing lines of this film. Cant say I like the “bullshit” part. The rest was…ok.

First off, this film is talky. Like really talky. The characters are the generic characters we have come to expect from horror movies, so why develop them in needless back-story. The action bits are few and far between, but we did get to see angels fighting each other and blocking bullets with their wings! I guess this movies budget was larger then X-Men’s since their angel character (a founding member of the team) was reduced to one shot where he should his wings, and the angel in this movie fights with them!

Anywho, one of the people in this Night of the Living Angels story is pregnant with …. Guess it….the saviour of mankind. How will this baby save mankind? Who knows. Maybe he will lead the resistance against Skynet. Whatever, that’s a typical apocalypse plot point.

All in all this wasn’t so bad. The ice-cream man and old lady were cool, but one question I did have was why are the angels possessing people for…why not just fly down and kill everyone, or why doesn’t God just start a bunch of earthquakes or something. And why does he change his tune after so many died….so that’s more than one question, but whatever, the angels are cool.

3/5 (a very very generous 3 I might add).

J-Man.
