Absolution
An angel descends to Earth - intending to learn what it is like to live as a human being. While on Earth, this spirit becomes involved in terrorism, drug deals, and pornography. Chemicals used in a new super-bomb are to be melted down in VHS tape shells and secretly shipped out of the U.S. as part of a porn film deal. Overseas, the porno tapes will be melted down again so that the chemicals can be extracted and used for mass destruction. The angel wants to stop these evils, though it is the law of the angels to not interfere in human history. The angel jumps from one human host to another, sinking deeper and deeper into the nightmare, becoming more involved. The angel begins to feel the darkest of human emotions: fear... anger... hate... and it all leads to bloodshed, depravity, and intense violence.

Very well executed
Memorable, crazy movie
Better Late Then Never
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Don't get me wrong. It's not great. But for a no-budget movie, it's a decent, watchable effort. I'm a strong believer in the at-least-they- tried theory of reviewing this kind of thing. It's not an embarrassment. There are some good performances, decent camera work and the writing avoids major suckitude. I give kudos to the the main bad guy who pulls off the role of a borderline psychotic middle-manager of a hit-man quite well. My biggest complaint stems from a movie about a porn star that contains no sex and no nudity at all. Make her a waitress or a secretary. It's the same movie without the bait and switch.
After I rented this one, I thought it would've been nice if someone created an amateur section to put it in. The film makes the production for "The Blair Witch" project look expert in comparison. Not only is the film quality poor, but the audio is awful. I had to turn the volume up and down. Then you have the cheesy acting, where the kids on Sesame Street do a better job. I don't mean to step on toes here, as the plot was creative, if not definitely unique. I just couldn't get past feeling like I was watching someone's home videos and endure the whole thing, much less enjoy it. 1/10
I can best describe this movie as a high school drama class project. Honestly, it has about as the same crew experience level and budget. Pathetic, long pointless scenes with even more pointless dialog, which at times is barely audible. I once heard that every detail in a movie is done for a reason. In this movie, the details just happened to be in front of the camera wherever they spontaneously decided to film.The only saving grace of this whole DVD are the shock style trailers in the extra's.0/10. A complete waste a a ____ to the people who voted anything else for this POS. I wasted $20 on the DVD. I guess the real idiot here is me.
When will people learn? Not just anyone can write Tarantino-like dialog. The makers of this low-budget action film make their hit men try to attempt it & it comes out as bickering. Other then that the sub-plot of the angle just feels tacked on as an afterthought. It's like they had no clue how to end the movie, so they re-wrote a few scenes & scattered them throughout the film. And after all that they STILL don't know how to end it. By the time the credits roll expect to scratch your head.My Grade: DDVD Extras: Trailers for The Undertow, China White Serpentine, Insaniac, I Spit on your Corpse, i P*** on your grave, Christmas Season Massacre & Scrapbook; Bloopers; Deleted Scenes; Stills gallery; & a short film ( Motives?)
