Cast: James Horan, Lance Henriksen, Erin Brown, Agathe de La Boulaye
Being a film reviewer sounds like a pretty sweet deal. People send you free movies! How awesome is that? But for every one good film, there are five stinkers you have to sit through and then write about. That's a brutal ratio if you think about it. You watch a lot of god-awful flicks, and if you do this long enough, you start to realize that not all bad movies are created equal. Some movies are just bad. Some are so bad they're good. And some are bad, but in an interesting way. Into this last category falls director Fabrice Lambot's 2008 flick, Dying God.
Dying God is a crime story with supernatural elements. Sean Fallon (James Horan) is a totally corrupt, alcoholic police detective.

Douglas Buck, director of Family Portraits: A Trilogy of America and the Sisters remake, is less than confident in mankind’s ongoing destructive relationship with mother earth. His in-the-works opus The Broken Imago has the earmarks of a terrifying new entry in a subgenre of increasing relevance, the Eco-Horror film. The Broken Imago is about a deadly virus of apocalyptic proportions that wipes pretty much everyone off the face of the Earth, leaving in its wake an evolutionary transformation that will make it very difficult for man to ever devolve back into what we collectively represent in these modern, environmentally destructive times.
Mass scale global hysteria is not specifically what Douglas Buck is most interested in capturing – Imago offers a more myopic apocalypse through how things play out in a remote Catholic boarding school in the jungle. The school is one of the last bastions unaffected by the virus, but when it hits,...
