God's Army

[winter]

I just finished rewatching God's Army, also known across the Atlantic as Prophecy. Yes, that movie where Viggo plays the devil.

Apart from the overwhelming angelic slashiness and the sheer coolness of Christopher Walken even if he doesn't get to dance, some points I need to think about:

- Thomas's vision: Angels. Impaled. Presumably those are the ones Gabriel's fighting. Impaler connection, anyone?

- the whole idea of Mary and the Colonel. Possibly worth developing on. Also, the actress seriously rocked.

- Lucifer's loneliness. And desperation. <3

- He's a renegade angel with a golden trumpet. She's an undead housewife who drives his car. They fight commit crime.

Also: this movie is more fun than it should be, really. Mrr, Gabriel. Lucifer. Simon too, for that matter.

The Prophecy was an excellent, excellent movie. Didn't get the box office it deserved, although it later became a rental hit and cult classic. The sequel isn't nearly as good, although it doesn't suck as badly as I thought it would. Walken's Gabriel was brilliant.

I kind of liked the sequel, but I've yet to see number three, or the fourth one. They lose for not having Viggo, though ^^
