"The Day of the Beast"
1995
Directed by Alex de la Iglesia

Part horror film, part farce, and gruesomely over-the-top, The Day of the Beast is a movie that is sure to be loved or hated with equal enthusiasm by different viewers. Madrid priest Father Angel believes that the anti-Christ will bring an apocalypse of evil to the world on Christmas Eve, so he sets out with a slovenly heavy metal fan and the host of a sleazy TV "reality" show to stop the forces of darkness. "A blisteringly audacious, headlong non-stop thriller of unflagging inventiveness" (Los Angeles Times). Winner of six Goya Awards, including Best Direction and Special Effects. Spanish with English subtitles.  99 minutes.
