Since the Friday the 13th franchise has received the Old Man Hatchet stamp of Approval, I decided to look into some of my old favorites before married life. Back when I was single, I used to love the Biblical based Horror movies. So I wanted to cover a few here. Please feel free to add comments, or other movies. I am looking at this from a scriptural viewpoint.

1. The Omen (1976)

I'm not sure on this one. Although it does show the Antichrist growing up in a political environment and being groomed for the highest political office in the world (POTUS). There are a few scriptural issues with it. According to Revelation 13:17-18 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Nowhere in the Bible does it say that the Antichrist will have a 666 birthmark. It was also pointed out to me if you look at 666 in Roman numerals you get DCLXVI Which is ever Roman numeral under 1000. Anyway, I'll leave that one for wiser minds to sort out.

Damien is born of a Jackal, again, not scriptural. He is adopted by Robert Thorn who has found out that his child, who was born on the same night (June 6, 1966) has died. Robert keeps this secret from his wife because they have had trouble conceiving and he doesn't want to crush her. All Damiens life he is protected by Satans minions. I guess that is one of the reasons I like this movie so much, it is the first time I ever saw a Rottweiler. and instead of recoiling in horror at the "Devil dog" my first response was "what a beautiful loyal creature".

I would not recommend this movie for anyone who does not have a firm grasp on their scripture. It is close but not 100% accurate. There is also a priest (why do all horror movies have Catholic priests in them, why does nobody ever run for a True Christian™ Pastor. Overall though, it does show how the Beast could easily enter society, especially if he is born to a political family with international ties.

2. The Omen (2006)



Although it is a rip off of the original, the "creative" minds behind this decided to skip the Christian message behind the first one and focus on the horror aspect with all the new and cool CGI effects. It's basically the same story, some of it is even the same dialogue except that it is much more violent and graphic.

I would suggest that you skip this one and go for the original version, but I am an old movie buff who prefers good acting over CGI.

I must go bake a pie now, so I will add to the list a little later.

Oh I see this post is inspired by our previous conversation!

A remake came by on June 6th, back in 2006... "06-06-06".

When I was a kid I remember The Omen IV came out, there, the daughter of the devil was named Delia and I wondered if people would make fun of Delias as they made fun of me.

Never met any Delia to ask her.
You don't happen to know one, do you?

Yes that was the remake I mentioned in #2. The original is much better.

Actually I think by Omen IV nobody bothered watching any more (III was really really bad). Then again, I don't know any Delia's either.

3. The Exorcist (1973)



I like this one because it shows the fallacy of the Catholic church. Regan, a 12-year-old girl is possessed by Satan himself, no piddly little demon of homosexuality for her, nope she's important enough for the big guy.

Her mother is "not religious" whatever that is supposed to mean. From the movie I assume it meant she was one of those fuzzy bunny christians who believe in a God out there, but can't be bothered to make time for him in her life.

Back to Regan though, she ends up going through a battery of medical and psychological tests. One psychiatrist hypnotizes her, thereby giving Satan the ability to overtake every aspect of the child. So mom runs to the Catholic church. Satan enjoys toying with the priests for a while, then he kills the experienced priest and possesses the younger one. The younger priest realizing that he's hell bound jumps out the window and straight to Hell. Proving that Catholic exorcisms do not work.

Again, if only they had contacted a True Baptist™ Pastor, none of this would have happened.

I like this Thread, Sister.

I would like to add another movie:




The Movie Shows how dangerous witchcraft can be.

4. Stigmata (1999)


Okay, 1999 was a big year for apocalyptic movies, what with Y2K and all, but this one is just horrible. First of all, can anyone point out to me where Stigmata is mentioned in the Bible? Anyone? Didn't think so.

Based on another Catholic heresy, an atheist party girl who is possessed by a demon is chosen for what the Catholics consider a great honor and symbol of holiness. Once again the priests are called in to perform their magic tricks. They inform the girl that as she draws nearer to God, the demons will become more violent. Wait a moment? Why can't they cast the demons out?
Matthew 17:17-20 Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me. And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour. Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

There is also the blasphemy of a new gospel being discovered but hidden by the Catholic church. Do they really believe that God can be held back by a bunch of perverted heathens?

Okay folks, biggest lesson learned from horror movies? If you or your loved one is possessed, skip the Catholics, they can't help you. Perhaps that's why they don't have Baptist Pastors in these movies, it would ruin the whole horror effect. Pastor shows up, casts demon out, takes love offering, leaves, end of movie.

What about

I think it shows the girls nowadays that being raped is no reason for abortion and it's NOTHING in comparison to what brave Rosemary went through after she was raped by a demon in her sleep.
Did she go to a clinic? Did she take one of those unholy day after pills? I don't think so! She was a True Baptist™ and had her baby... plus the movie would have been too short had she done any of those other things.
I think this is based in a true story too.

Keep it up BIG! Would you recommend a movie for me to watch tonight?

5. The Shining (1980)

Thank you Brother, I forgot about this one, probably because it doesn't claim to be based on scripture.

The story of a man who has been beaten to the point of death by our femnazi society, tries to escape it by taking a job at a remote hotel where he can work on his novel. Unfortunately the stupid bugger decides to take his hysterical wife with him and she drives him mad. Eventually he decides that the only way that he can gain his sanity back is by permanently shutting the harpies mouth and by killing his disobedient witch of a son. The "shine" that the name of the movie comes from is witchcraft shared between the boy, his demon Tony, and a "no good nigger cook" who can read the boys mind from Florida.

Unfortunately it has a liebral ending. If they had chosen a True Christian™ ending, he would have killed his wife, stoned his son, then sat down to enjoy a peaceful winter in solitude.

6. Rosemary's Baby (1968)

I'm only numbering them and putting the years on because being female, I'm a stickler for organization. Also the originals are usually much better than the remakes, so I want people to know which version to get.

Yes an excellent movie. In 1968, the height of the free love movement. This woman made the right choices, she stayed a mother to her child.

As for which movie I would recommend? Well perhaps I should start putting in Thumbs up thumbs down. I'll contact an admin.

7. The Mist (2007)



Stay away from this one. Although it has the plus side of scientists playing God are going to destroy our world, they treat Christians like we are completely insane. The one Christian in town, is stuck in the grocery store with other towns people when "the mist" moves in. She then starts ranting and raving about how God demands a human sacrifice and decides to go after the only child in the store. This just propagates the atheist belief that us Christians are insane and can therefore be ignored, after all who in their right mind would carry a Bible wherever they go?

[BelieverInGod]

8. Black Christmas (1974)


Like other slasher films, this one looks at what happens to women who act like whores. It's Christmas holidays and the sorority sisters are planing on staying at the house and partying rather than being at home helping their mothers. One (Jess) is even planning to get an abortion just to torture her boyfriend who wants to marry her. God sends in the psycho killer who starts killing the girls one by one.

9. The Day After Tomorrow (2007) :thumb down:

I know I was only using the thumbs up and thumbs down but while browsing movie titles I came across this one and one thumb down does not do it service.

First of all it is based on the presumption of an old earth, which we know is completely false. Then the scientists try to warn the President of the coming disaster. The president is a bumbling idiot who can't be reached and can't make any decisions, instead the decision is left to the vice-president, an older, overweight, man who is having none of this alarmist talk, and believes we must burn more fossil fuels in order to keep the economy going. These two characters are quite obviously spoofs of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, only with the liebral twist to make them bumbling idiots.

Once the disaster strikes and "mother earth" turns against us, the hero of the movie is a Negro homeless bum who teaches all of the white people how to survive, not exactly believable. Of course only atheist liebrals are saved as us conservative Christians are too "stupid" to listen to a Negro bum who tells us to hole up in a library.

Speaking about the library, there is one piece of blasphemy here that is unbelievable. The survivors are burning books for warmth and one of them goes to burn a Gutenberg Bible, when a man speaks up and protests he is shot down by a femnazi who sarcastically asks him if God is going to save them. The man (an obvious liebral) backs down and says that he only wanted to save the Bible because it was the first printed book and therefore a record of mans achievements.

This movie is nothing but liebral claptrap. I'm sure many of them sit at home and masturbate to this movie thinking of how the earth is going to punish all of us Christians. What they fail to realize is that by the time the world gets this bad, we will have already been raptured.

I recently had the opportunity to sit down and watch Halloween and it gets a big thumbs up from me. The film is a chilling and accurate portrayal of what happens when you celebrate Halloween or have sex outside of marriage. Jamie Lee Curtis and her friends are hunted down one by one by a masked Christian crusader who shreds them to pieces for celebrating Lucifer's birthday and fornicating. In the end, when Jamie Lee Curtis thinks she's killed the valiant Christian soldier, she looks out the window to see he's gotten away! The movie was remade recently and personally I think the remake is the superior version. Show this to small children so they will understand the importance of a pious and chaste lifestyle.

10. Cujo (1983)


Well besides the obvious public service message of make sure your dog has its rabies shot, especially if it's big enough to over power you, there's a good Christian message in the movie as well.

Donna Trenton, a whore of a wife who isn't "content" with her role in life has an affair. The husband finds out about the affair, but must leave on a business trip before he can properly punish her for her indiscretions. Instead he refuses to fix her old Pinto, so she takes it to a backyard mechanic and probably thinks she can pay him with sexual favors. Instead Cujo is waiting for her as God's punishment. The St. Bernard terrorizes her and her son and keeps them locked inside the Pinto, where they slowly succumb to dehydration. The only major disappointment I have with the movie is that the child is saved. In the book the child is taken from his mother as punishment for her whoring.

Hosea 2:4 And I will not have mercy upon her children; for they be the children of whoredoms.

Hebrews 13:4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge

Thank you Brother for your input, I was a bit torn on this movie, but if the Good men of Freehold believe it is proper family viewing, then it's a thumbs up!

12. Frailty (2001)



What a wonderful Christian romp this story is. Mr. Meiks, a single father with two boys in Texas, is called by God to go out and kill Demons that are in the guise of humans. God even provides Mr. Meiks with a holy ax to kill them with. He is so excited he wakes his two boys up and takes them with him to assist on his Holy quest.

It turns out though that only Adam can see the demons, leading the father to believe that Fenton is possessed by a demon. The story is told from Fenton's point of view that his father was insane, but there is an interesting twist at the end that I will leave for the viewer.

We really do need more Christian viewing like this.

Brother, are you suggesting that Jamie Lee Curtis's feminazi Lezbean character is to be a role model, since she survived the ordeal?

Sister, you are absolutely right. An uplifting conclusion indeed!

[BelieverInGod]

Brothers and Sisters,

I received a PM to do a review of "The Wicker Man", unfortunately I have not seen this movie, could somebody else do a review of it for me?

[Rev. M. Rodimer]

Sister BIG, I do believe that particular film has been reviewed more than once here on the forum.

This is the first one I found:

At long last, our explorer was rewarded with martyrdom. At no point did his faith falter!

I strongly recommend this documentary to anyone who wishes to learn the truth about Wicca.
