I saw this movie, "
Black Death," a few nights ago. The trailer, above, gives you the gist of the story.
This trailer shows you the story
they wish they'd made. No, "Black Death" isn't particularly exciting, but "
it’s strong meat, and it works," because it's basically that rarity of rarities - a true atheist movie.
As one reviewer said, "this film bathes in bloody, brutal ambiguity, intelligently casting both Christians and pagans as murderous creeps in a way that looks back objectively at 14th century ignorance while shining an ugly, knowing light on contemporary religious arrogance, too. Message: Everybody sucks. Always."
But still they ask why atheists are so
angry (Haven't a clue,…). "Black Death" gets compared with 1968's "Witchfinder General" a lot - the (entire) movie above - just as I get (wrongly) compared to that movie's Vincent Price.
Accuracy shaccuracy. The point is to yell things and don't make sense. Whatever you do -
don't make sense.
In that, I'm more like the online "Judge Judy":
