- matvil8June 17, 2026Wow, such a great movie. It had action, suspense, horror and a thrill ride a minute. In most movies vampires used to be human, but not in this movie. That is something entirely different and it makes it, even more interesting. Paul Bettany, Karl Urban, Maggie Q, Christopher Plummer & more. A bunch of good actors and the storyline. Glad I own the movie Priest. Yes, another hit. Thank you again movie makers...
- jackmeatJanuary 1, 2025My quick rating - 5.9/10. Now that is a fun movie. A "Priest" is basically the badasses who protect the city in a post-apocalyptic city that is run by religious radicals. They are walled into the city to keep away from the vampires that live outside the walls that supposedly had all been terminated. But these aren't your every day vampires, they are mutated and don't have interest in romantic bites to turn you into one of them. basically they want you dead. After a "priest" (Paul Bettany) has his niece kidnapped, he goes looking for her and confronts the whole band of vampires. A fun action/scifi ish movie that just goes all over the board in the action department. Definitely worth watching and strangely flew under my radar until now. If the story itself wasn't so convoluted it would score higher so check reality at the door and grab your ninja crucifix throwing stars and you will enjoy the bloody romp through this interesting world.
