The vatican tapes cast
The Vatican Tapes is bogged down by painfully slow pacing during which nothing happens for a long time, a cast that is mostly just there to get their paycheck, and a script that doesn’t seem to know it actually wants to say. And it’s sad at the end of the day that the Church, for all its so-called elite warriors against darkness in standby to do God’s work, is actually quite impotent, just standing there and apparently gaping helplessly after sending just one guy to take down the Antichrist. The horror bits are standard Hollywood tricks – slow motion camera moving over a dark area, BOOM! – and the exorcism scene is unintentionally funny because of some hammy acting from everyone involved. Dougray Scott wears some tight shirts, but his face looks like a blown-up car accident. Djimon Hounsou is still looking for a role that will do him justice. Lovely.įather Lozano generally stands around mumbling prayers and looking at the camera like he’s a lost goldfish waiting for his next paycheck. And this whore mother aspect of Olivia is one of the reasons that marked her as the Antichrist. In other words, the prostitute he knocked up in an effort to “save” her (eye roll) – whatever. Her father Roger is creepily possessive of Angela, and he knocked Angela’s mother up before abandoning her, and when she dumped Angela – she was a down on her luck prostitute, remember? – Roger took Angela in.
It turns out that she’s marked by the Devil, and it’s all her whore mother’s fault, of course. Here, the Antichrist is poor Angela, who cuts herself on her birthday cake and proceeds to start drinking entire bottles of water in one go and generally staring at the camera in a “I, too, wanna be like those long-haired dead girls in those Korean horror movies!” way.
THE VATICAN TAPES CAST MOVIE
This movie tries to follow the footsteps of movies like The Omen, which is all about the coming of the Antichrist. Think about it – creepy wizened white men starting at the screen to footage of you in the bathroom or changing room, all in the name of watching for the Devil’s work to show up. The only creepy thing about The Vatican Tapes is its assertion that the Roman Catholic Church has footage of all of us doing everything… everywhere.
THE VATICAN TAPES CAST TRIAL
The trial is being held there the usual courthouse is too small to comply with COVID restrictions.Main cast: Olivia Taylor Dudley (Angela Holmes), Michael Peña (Father Lozano), Dougray Scott (Roger Holmes), John Patrick Amedori (Pete), Djimon Hounsou (Vicar Imani), and Peter Andersson (Cardinal Bruun)
He was the only defendant present on Wednesday in the makeshift courtroom in the Vatican Museums. Perlasca is the main witness in the case against the most prominent defendant, Cardinal Angelo Becciu, a once powerful Vatican official. It started in July with 10 defendants but four were later removed while the investigation of their alleged activities continues. The trial revolves mostly around the purchase by the Vatican's Secretariat of State of a commercial and residential building at 60 Sloane Avenue in London's South Kensington, one of the wealthiest districts in the British capital. The prosecution said that during Perlasca's questioning, it was not referring to private conversations but to comments the pope had made publicly to reporters about the investigation. 1, 2019, should be submitted as evidence and made available to the defence. Panella said the prosecutions' conversations with the pope, including when he gave permission to proceed with a raid on Vatican offices on Oct. Panella said a video of the interrogation showed that Perlasca "looked shocked" when investigators told him that his answers did not coincide with what the pope had told them. Lawyer Luigi Panella accused the prosecution of hiding details of an interrogation while questioning Monsignor Alberto Perlasca, a former Vatican official who was first a suspect and then a star witness for the prosecution.
