Menendez: Le jour du seigneur

I've seen many possession films, but I don't think I've seen one in which the exorcism is conducted by Mike Tysoning a teenage girl. Lol.

I couldn't stop laughing when the priest repeatedly reminded the girl's father to read the Bible verses in a gringo accent to fool the demon. Lol, Then the priest reminds the man to forget the gringo accent because the demon already know he wasn't a gringo. Lol. Pure comedy. Olalay pinche gringo!

I didnt quite expect to see when i first started this devil excorsism alla' mechico. it has as usual a long slow intro, just as the originalos made in the 70's and you get this sound feeling that this must be a hysteric parent that wish to retain power as an adult towards a blossoming, wanna have fun, daughter.

but the excorsist of 70's are minced meat compared to this. i liked the second half very well, because it had so many funny, but also extremely violent phases that it almost came to be like laughing on adrenaline, and you get so confused considering who is the devil among the caracters.

so its demonology at its best, a well acted and produced religiou horror thinks the grumpy old man.recommended

A lovely film about possession, which I watched a long time ago, I don't remember the details, but passionate, intense scenes of possession, a great ending, little Ximena Romo, despite the baby face, is already 30 years old, excellent chemistry and performance of quartet, for a low budget, with single location, a very good film came out...

Starts off slow with lots of dialogue in the first hour, but the last half hour or so more than makes up for it. I personally don't believe in demonic possession but I do watch these type of movies for entertainment value.

If you think about it, a demon is not going to easily release a person from possession after being read a few passages from the Bible. So I like the fact that this movie went where most won't...infliction of real pain on the possessed to loosen the demon's hold, in graphic detail. At times I wasn't entirely sure whether the priest was a sadist or a real exorcist. Watch and you'll find out !

If the first hour had been paced better, I would rated the film a 9. Still liked watching it though, for its originality and acting by the 3 main characters.

Some scenes were so funny. It made me laugh really. Overall not a good movie. When it finished, I asked myself, what did I watch? Too much violence, even more kind of pedo and incest scenes made me disturb..i am not sure about second part..
