Watch Western Religion For Free

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Too much of everything

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Great story line but totally pathetic acting, proves if you pay peanuts you get monkeys

Sometimes you can't believe that you sat through a whole movie and this is one of them. Religion is a fine example of the contempt that many Movie/TV execs have for the viewing public. Religion is a prime example of how a script written in a drug induced haze, thrown together quickly using no name actors, cheap sets poor acting, and even worse direction can still get airtime. It felt strangely Canadian. The high point in it, funny enough, was the flamboyant performance of the quirky character of Salt Peter who seemed more out of place in a western than any of the other weird characters.

As you can tell from the title, the dialogue is filled with double meanings as the devil has come to Religion...Religion, Arizona that is. The town of Religion is holding a high stakes poker tournament. Some of the language is unappealing to Christians: "The town is going to be bigger than God's illegitimate son." Almost a John Lennon quote.The tournament attracts many colorful characters which make the film worth watching. Saint John (Gary Kohn) is a man of the cloth who is tied to Anton Stice (Claude Duhamel) our dark character looking to gain a soul for the prize of a Cross of Gold. Some characters include Salt Peter (Louie Sabatasso) , a flamboyant morphine addict who is bisexual. Bootstrap Bess (Holiday Hadley) the town madam and a sure shot. Waylin Smith (Miles Szanto) a man raised by Apaches who has guidance from a spirit. Bobby Shea (Sean Joyce) a quiet man who loves Bess. Prince Zain Mohammad (Merik Tadros) an Arabian Prince of Azir. There is also a reporter who says, "Freedom is an illusion created by servants to help them sleep at night." He notes that the players are treated like gods. An illusionists and a man with finger puppets.The players have to decide what on earth is worth the price of their soul as the card game plays out. The film is clever and the characters are developed with flashbacks. Guide: No swearing or nudity. Brief sex scene.

The film surprised me by starting off as a shoot 'em up, then gradually transforming into a spiritual film. Without giving too much away, the group of gunfighters, charlatans, harlots, and occult types that gather to compete in a poker tournament in an old mining town, gradually realize they are in a battle for something more profound. The movie has a peculiar fable-like feel, in that you can take what's happening on a surface level, or read more into it if you make the connections. There is a stylized aspect to it, which includes the performances, from the gunslinging madame Bess and her carpenter suitor Bobby Shea, to the Clint Eastwood like Preacher Saint John and the carnival barker Harvard Gold, who runs the town. There's some compelling mystical types, too, such as the Ben Kenobi-like Indian who guides one of the half Indian gunfighters, and a magician/trickster named Raven, who may or may not know alchemy. But the performances that drove this home for me were Anton Stice, played with creepy mystical perfection by Claude Duhamel, and the hilarious dandy Salt Peter, who had me in stitches. This is the kind of movie you can watch many times and get something different from it with each viewing.
