The Visitation - 004

The only thing better than a bad Christian movie is a bad horror movie.  This week we combine the two with The Visitation.  After all, we are headed into Halloween.  Listen as Jeff, Dylan and Adam review this convoluted mess of a film.  From plot, pacing and phoned in performances this movie misses all the marks.  Find out if this film is so bad it’s good, or just plain bad?

PLOT SUMMARY

The Visitation takes place in the town of Antioch inhabited by the usual cast of small town characters including an inept police department, rebellious teenagers and of course everyone has a secret.  We open with former pastor Travis Jordan putting down his dog after losing his wife in a gruesome murder a year prior.  Soon strange miracles begin to take place in town courtesy of John Connor, sorry I mean Eddie Vedder, no, sorry again, I mean Brandon Nichols, who is claiming to be Jesus.  The town soon begins to believe Brandon’s claim while Pastor Travis and the local vet, Morgan, investigate who Brandon real is.  Is he the second coming of Christ or something else?
