RECONCILED
THROUGH THE CHRIST (Sub
Rosa) Christian genre in a horror way. 82 minutes. Not rated,
violence. Franklin McDowell embarks on a dark journey to kill his
estranged wife. But along the way, he receives resistance from a
mysterious and relentless guy who calls himself
Davie
.
Davie
is wise beyond his years, and he attempts to help Frankie deal with, and
over come the obstacles and evils that we read about every day in the
newspaper.
The movie opens up with really good visuals, and
a great monologue that makes you stop and think about life in our own
space, as well as on earth.
Davie
digs deep through out the movie, to try and find the words that will bring
a change to Frankie’s obsessive life. This is not what I would call a
typical Christian film, which is a good thing. It seems to think outside
the box and show the real cruelties of life. I found this movie to have an
interesting mix of a strong Christian message, but delivered in somewhat
of a horror movie fashion. There were plenty of jumps, scares and chase
scenes. The story moves along at a pretty fast pace, and offers a good
twist at the end. I learned some things by watching the movie. It appears
the writer spent time doing his research on scripture and history. I found
the script itself to be the best part of the movie, followed by the
performance of Frankie. He was not your typical physical imagine of a
preacher. This made his character very interesting, and I enjoyed watching
him… I found myself wanting to hear what else he had to say. I think
this movie would be enjoyed by the over 13 Christian Genre.
DVD offers the making of the virtual effects, behind the
scenes, movie trailer and director commentary. – Darla Enlow
