El abismo del infierno

Not a great movie, but still the best horror movie i have watched the last 2 years, except for "WHAT JOSIAH SAW". But this, unlike JOSIAH, is a pure horror movie. There are twists, some are predictable and one i didn't see it coming. Acting is good, especially for a horror movie. It's much scarier than watching a masked-face man killing others. I got scared watching this and the ending made it even scarier, in retrospect.

In any case, this is a polarising ending. For sure, some people will dislike the whole movie because of it. I don't wanna spoil it, therefore i won't say anything about the ending, but if you are looking for a real horror movie, not a comedy horror, not mindless fun, i believe that you will like it.

I liked the movie very much. So dark and till the end you cannot understand what is the final. In movie there are some clues but you have to watch very carefully. Actually when it is not in English, I really cannot follow but for this movie it is necessary. Good for 2022 and it was different story, I liked the end, message was so clear. Actually there are several messages in it. I will not say this is a horror movie but it has super tension. Highly recommend to watch but really you have to watch with all eyes.. By the way visual effects are also super nice. I can say I like the actings too. Very good.

I wasn't expecting much on this movie, headed straight away to IMBD and checked out the reviews. But turned out to be better then expected as the story unfolds.

Definitely worth a watch, well made and directed too.

The movie doesn't feel cheap, or degraded in anyway, definitely worth a watch.

I initially thought this was one of the netflix bottom quality movies, the onea you just skip as your looking for something better, but I was wrong. Wasn't the best I seen but was surprisingly Intresting and kept he drawn in wanting to know more as the story unfolded.

So take a chance, you might like it.

Pretty grim film with a lot of equally grim atmosphere in a monastery somewhere, I presume, in Poland since it's Polish film. I was about to say the premise is, but this has a few premises so let me just say it's starts off with a priest shot to death while about to stab to death an infant thinking it to be the anti-Christ, very reminiscent of The Omen, and he might be right. We immediately switch to 30 years later when a detective infiltrates this monastery due to the disappearance of a number of women who went in only to never come out. It annoyed me for a while at how easily he discovers various things in his snooping around. He gets found out quickly enough and things get ugly and brutal and very gruesome. This is not a great movie, but it accomplishes what it sets out to do right to the end with no holds barred.

Jacob Boehme, a mystic from Silesia - the area where the monastery (Lubiaz) is located where the film was shot - named the expected time of "the rejuvenation of the world" the Time of the Lily. In Catholicism, lily is a symbol of innocence and Virgin Mary.... yet in the more esoteric circles, it is also a symbol of Lilith, the first wife of Adam, like Satan banished by God - in her case, to the desert. As often in the case of Christianity, meanings are bestowed upon the older pagan symbols, reversing them yet raising the question which meanings are the real ones. Here, the well descends to Hell ("Hellhole"); in the Old Testament a well is associated with the beloved of Jacob, Rachel; in Judaism a woman comparable to Virgin Mary, whose name, maybe surprisingly, maybe not will be the last words of Satanic messiah during sacrifice. Likewise, the most knowledgeable in the matters of the cult of the Prince of Darkness in this movie is a monk named after a man who set up Christianity as a religion.... Peter. He will betray the Satanic messiah in the way original Peter betrayed Christ, finally both enabling and completing the sacrifice of Satan's Chosen One, in the end so akin in his fate to Jesus Christ.

The appearance of lilies, rather untypical for cinematic stories about devil, is an example of how well versed in the occult this movie is... In this gripping story of ritual, human sacrifice, cannibalism (the original Polish title is "The Last Supper/Ostatnia wieczerza") and deceit (of his own worshippers by Satan is the last one), the Son of the Dawn (reversal again) is the only winner, even his earthly followers paying price: perhaps they never paid enough attention to the wisdom which says that "No one really knows what the World to Come shall look like". This movie says it will be the great Reversal again, high up to Sky - As above, so Below - to remind one of occult tenets, again somehow present in the Catholic Oratio Dominica prayer ("in caelo et in terra").

The knowledge this movie conveys (up to the pattern of thyrsus on the ceremonial robes of the high priest of Satan) in a way is more terrifying than multitude of slashers inhabiting only the realm of fiction.
