Mel Gibsons interpretation was widely considered " Graphic, Violent & Brutal which are all the elements of a horror show; which it was; & so is the Carpenters son. Our interest in the story lies in Jesus as human & a conduit of God, so altho we do suffer being human, we inherit a part of Gods fortune: everlasting life. Anyway; if being human is being born to suffer at some point, we are desparate for a way to cope with it. Cage is known for his quirkiness & a flare for dark humor. I've always thought that was missing in Jesus's story. Knowing whats to come as a child of God & being a human gave him a freedom to juggle both realities which has a scifi element as well. I think that the Carpenters son can free us up to expand our human connection to the story without religious restrictions.

It kept my attention for starters, wasn't predictsble, kept me curious & delivered. The whole cast did a great job & I'm sure we'll see alot more of Sofi Thatcher. I saw her in a horror movie a while later. Yet another consistently great performance. We'll worth the time.

You have to be in the right mood for this movie; perhaps a lazy day with no interest in being entertained, more like an open book contemplative. I was much more interested during Terence Howard's monolog about two hours in. If your patient it delivers. That said; it's not a movie I'd think about watching twice.

I've heard much about Hitchcocks beligerant obsession with realism at Tippys expense, but not the sexual assault in the car. I give "The Girl" an A for disturbing, but it's not a movie I'd wanna see twice.

I had no idea how good Laury Metcalf could be. Her performance here was Oscar worthy. All around a solid cast tho.

I look forward to every episode & Molly Parker is a great lead.

I take everything with a grain of salt; so to each his own. I don't doubt the possibility of spirits because like most I've experienced what seemed like ESP. : ex. Thinking of some one & they call or visa versa. That seems to be in the same ball park as spirits to me. Even my dog knew when my son was on his way home 10 minutes before he got here & he rarely came home at the same time. That said; we're all subject to loss & struggle with it, so we're a pretty big pond of fish for those looking for a mark. That's not to say I discount all Psychics, but definitely most as I do with those who claim to be anything extra ordinary. I don't even doubt that some of these so called psychics are sincere in their belief ironically for the same desperation that drew others to seek them for help. They crave purpose. From another angle I can see why a non believer would simply exhaust the possibilities with therapists or psychics to digest a difficult period. All science is based on theory that comes from trial & era & trial & era catalogs the results to determine the rate of chance. At some point we all want to stop struggling & being cynical, so we search for someone one that agrees with our wishfull thoughts. This doc didn't hold my attention thru out, but I think it's good to gather such a wide array of sessions so those interested can experience a more neutral perspective of what they may crave.

One of the best of this Genre I've seen; up there with "The Watchmen" & "Abraham Lincoln the Vampire Slayer". I'm sure I'll continue to come back to it as the years go by. Even if your not a fan of this Genre it'll resonate.
