Yeah, and it also has the guy who super badly wants the scene with the wife leaving her husband of some dude on the Internet and then he kills her. He insists so much it seemed like there was more truth in it than he was letting on.

How about something not terrible. Rolf Forsburg Made a lot of weird experimental religious films, and was pretty drat good at it. Unfortunately they are pretty hard to find. I saw Cinefamily in LA is going to be showing his lost films though. Here is his acclaimed film Parable https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCkqyyBClmU It's a Christ allegory where the role of Christ is represented as a clown.It was commissioned by the New York City Protestant Council of Churches for their 1964 World’s Fair pavilion, and seemed to be pretty controversial. I also found his film stalked which can be watched here. http://matineeclassics.com/movies/1968/stalked/ It was produced by the Lutheran Churches of America. It was about a man who returns to his childhood home to escape his job of being a carnival owner, and to escape god. He returns to his home to find it totally abandoned and is then stalked by Jesus. It was shown at churches to start discussions. He is a really interesting filmmaker with heavily symbolic religious films, and it baffles me he isn't regarded higher with not only the film community, but religious communities.

The mission is an amazing Christian film with a great Morricone score.

So I guess the real problem isn't Christian film, It's conservative films.

Also I mean conservative films more in the political sense than the ideological sense.

DeusExMachinima posted:2God2Undead I don't even know what to make of this. This is hilarious. You could maybe argue that the first one was kind of subtle, this one just goes full on that there is some government agency of evil atheists who are looking to destroy all Christianity.

Who was Ben Hur for? Fans of the original are in nursing homes, and I don't think kids are flocking to biblical epics these days.

The mission is beautiful and fantastic, and has a Ennio Morricone score.

DStecks posted:Absolutely none of this is in the Bible. Yeah I feel like most of the stuff about the devil comes more from Paradise Lost and Dante. Because the devil really isn't in the Bible and especially not his origin story.
