The Passion of the Christ
Direct by Mel Gibson
Release February 25, 2004
Good: Creepy devil who looks like Death from 'Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey', Aramaic spoken language, lots of blood and gore.
Bad: White Jesus, crazy Mel.
Thoughts: I like to think of this movie as a modern day equivalent to all of the old Bible Epic films, but much more realistic, dirty, and bloody. I also find it delightful that Christian audiences who generally oppose violent, torture porn/snuff films made this movie such a success.
Drinking Game Ideas: Take a communion shot of red wine whenever Jesus is struck, or during any slow motion scenes.
Fun Fact: The Passion of the Christ is the highest grossing non-English language film and the most successful R-rated film in the United States.
