!!!!! MILD SPOILERS !!!!!
I guess on paper the plot of SAINT SINNER resembles a sort of supernatural TERMINATOR with a 19th century monk goiing forward to the 21st century to pursue a couple of succubi , but the 19th century lacks any sense of time and place and the characters seem to be played as though they`re a bunch of 21st century flatmates , seriously they are which meant I couldn`t take them seriously
As bad as that is it`s when the succubi get to the 21st century things really fall apart . You see these two demonic women have got a litle sideline of working as prostitutes to ensnare men . Fair enough you might say everyone has to earn a living , but unless you`ve seen SAINT SINNER you`ve no idea how ridiculous this is because the succubi seem to be covered in a slimy gel and there`s no way any man would pay good money to have sex with them . In fact I`d have thought everyman they came across would have paid good money NOT to have sex with them because they`re totally gross looking . Of course men paying good money not to have sex with them would have interfered with the plot ( But not with logic ) so we have several bizarre sequences of the gruesome twosome earning some money and killing their victims , but the most unconvincing scene is the bit where the succubi kill a policeman . What`s unconvincing about it Theo ? Well it involves the cop getting his spinal column pulled out of his neck and the succubi sucking on it . This happens on a ferris wheel at a crowded funfair where no one notices anything amiss , and no I`m not making this up
I once had high hopes for Clive Barker who made my all time favourite horror movie HELLRAISER but after seeing this garbage I`m left believing HELLRAISER was a total fluke on the part of Barker
