day of the beast be a film that i have have in my possession for quite a while but just never get around to . thanks to the prompting of a few adamant friend and i finally throw this one in . have only see de la iglesia accion mutante ( which i wasn not a real big fan of . ) and perdita durango ( aka dance with the devil which i do like very much . ) i wasn not sure what i be in for with day of the beast . i must say that although flawed and it be one of the good horror or comedy hybrid that i have ever see . it christmas time and and a priest have learn through his study the day of the anti christ birth . his goal be to invoke the devil by perform whatever bit of satanic mayhem he can in order to eventually realize his goal of summon satan and kill his spawn . in his quest and the holy man call upon the knowledge of a death metal obsess record store clerk and and a cheezy talk show host to further his cause . a truly funny and well make production day of the beast be a fun and twisted black comedy that should appeal to most horror fan . it not a graphically gory or sleazy film but the solid performance and excellent camera work and solid story line should keep your interest . the end be a big anti climactic which be the only real drawback to me . an otherwise great film that should be at the top of your list . 8 . 5/10 .
