Alex de la Iglesia’s THE DAY OF THE BEAST
(R, 1998, 103 min, Spain)
"This Christmas, the Devil himself is coming…and only the unholy can stop him." A Satan-obsessed priest, a reckless metalhead, and a clairvoyant join forces to prevent the Antichrist from being born on Christmas Eve, summoning the Devil himself in the process. Blood sprays, corpses explode, demons lurk in every shadow, and amid the unrelenting gore, laughter erupts uncontrollably. This is a black-comedy horror whirlwind so outrageous, so gory, and so irreverently funny that missing it would be a life-altering mistake. Heaven can wait, hell’s got him now. If you think you’ve seen it all, think again — this Spanish cult classic will shred your expectations while offering a helluva fun time.
In Spanish with English subtitles.
