I actually thought this was so much better than the reputation it’s gotten. Marlon Wayans really commits here, and there’s an intriguing premise that’s at least trying to do something visually ambitious, even if it doesn’t always hit the mark.
I love religious horror, particularly when it evokes Christian imagery, and in theory, mapping those elements onto a horror film has potential for commentary on our Christlike worship of sports stars. Some moments work, sure. But more often than not the it just feels remarkably unsubtle and extremely heavy-handed. Outside of Wayans, the performances aren’t all that compelling either.
