Solid Direct-To-Video Horror Film

Jack Fender is an ex-erotica photographer and current porn photographer. He is chosen by God to be the protector of the Holy Grail. He is a man who had lost his will to make erotic art photographs and his faith in God years ago due to the death of his wife, Tina. He must regain his faith in God and also protect the Holy Grail from evil people who want it.

This movie was slow burn horror that gets pretty brutal and nasty towards the end. I thought it was well made for such a limited budget ($450,000). The slow build nature of this film makes it extremely interesting and does a great job building tension. This was a movie that had me sucked in from the start. The ending was a little weak, but it did a good job in tying everything together. This was a good gore, pretty cool looking living dead, and a little nudity thrown in for good measure.

Overall, it was a nice little direct-to-video flick that could be a sleeper to watch. It is my second favorite direct-to-video title of the year behind Dead Meat.
