After all the crap Hellywood has been shoveling us lately (do we really need another Inspirational Darkie Movie?), discerning Christian filmgoers are about ready to give up the ghost... and rightfully so. But when it seemed all hope was lost, this glorious independent picture burst onto the scene and changed everything. Truly, we are looking at a film for the ages. And best of all, you can watch it free RIGHT HERE! Brothers and sisters, this is an opportunity you don't want to pass up.

Here's a lovely review of it from TheBostonChannel.com:

Priest's Murder Video Online Prompts Probe
Inmates Do Not Have Internet Access

BOSTON -- A security video of prison guards ferociously tugging at the wedged-shut door of the cell where a convicted killer was strangling and beating defrocked pedophile priest John Geoghan has shown up on the Internet, prompting an investigation by Massachusetts prisons officials.

The video posted last month was brought to the attention of the Boston Herald, apparently by Joseph Druce, the man convicted of killing Geoghan inside a cell at Souza-Baranowski maximum security prison in August 2003.

"The truth about officer involvement in John Geogan's (sic) death," a handwritten note sent to the Herald and signed "Joseph Lee Druce" says.

The note then has the address www.youtube.com/JosephDruce in parentheses, followed by "The truth about officers allowing J.G. to die through their neglect. Let the truth be know (sic)."

The 10-minute video shows up to five guards at a time tugging at the door Druce had wedged shut with a paperback, while other guards stand at the ready to enter the cell as soon as it's opened.

About halfway through the video, guards pry the door open, and a number rush into the cell before emerging seconds later dragging someone out, presumably Druce, and pinning him to the floor. What appears to be medical personnel then rushes into the cell. Viewers can neither see the slaying in progress nor Geoghan's body.

Inmates do not have access to the Internet and state Department of Correction officials are investigating how the video made it to the Web, department spokeswoman Diane Wiffin said.

"We have no idea where he got it from. We don't know where the tape came from or how it got on the Internet," Wiffin told the Herald on Thursday night. "It is under investigation."

The president of the guards union said the state should "immediately use any legal remedy available" to get the video off the Web.

"We are deeply concerned that an internal security video was posted by an inmate or an inmate's family," said Steve Kenneway, president of the Massachusetts Correction Officers Federated Union.

"It's absolutely a public safety issue, posting emergency response actions of correction officers on the Web."

Druce was already serving a life sentence for murder when he killed Geoghan, 68, a central figure in Boston's clergy sex abuse scandal. Geoghan was serving a nine- to 10-year sentence for groping a 10-year-old boy, but had been accused of molesting as many as 150 boys.

Druce claimed he was chosen by God to kill pedophiles and unsuccessfully used an insanity defense at his trial.

In August 2005, the Herald obtained a video that showed Druce re-enacting the slaying in which he strangled Geoghan with a pair of socks, tightening them with Geoghan's own sneaker. Druce then climbed on his cot and jumped off repeatedly to show how he crushed the convicted molester's body.

While powerful and uplifting, I feel that the movie leaves too much up to the imagination -- it would have been nice to at least see a bloody corpse being dragged from the cell. In spite of such unnecessary artistic restraint, this is a superb summer entertainment and a great treat to sink your teeth into while waiting for the next Left Behind installment.

And I'll bet the state will pay for the funeral, at taxpayer expense, of course!

Indeed, Sister, this is a streaming art video of the highest order and a worthy entertainment for Jesus Himself. The videographer's kinesthetic treatment of the guards' black-clad, lurching bodies permits the viewer an unparalleled metaphoric experience of the True Christian™'s daily struggle to overcome the forces of idolatrous Catholicism, mollycoddling Democrat injustice, and the typically LIEbrul embrace of inhygienic sexuality, as you’ll agree.

The real star of that movie is Jesus. The director was probably some kraut existentialist post-modern homer, but he got the point across loud and clear with his minimalist techniques: Don't mess with Christ.

And I think its no coincidence that God chose a man named Joseph to be His emissary in the matter.
