Does this movie count as being bad because it was being too sadistic. I definetely felt that way and that's why it sucks to me. I mean little kids being murdered, someone getting decapitated, a little girl being threatenedall for no good reason but some crazy fanatical belief. That's not scary and cool, that's just cruel. Anyone agree?

It depends how you look at itI mean, yeah its pretty heavy stuff, but I don't think that was the focus of the movie. I think it was more to show the "evil" Eric Stark's organization was creating rather than the good he portrayed it to be I think it was more than just sadism in the movie in the fact that there is a higher hope from a world filled with, well, sadism..but maybe thats just me

That's reality, and if you can't handle, don't watch the movie. Little kids are being murdered, sacrifaced, raped and sodomised everyday. I really liked this movie, cause it portrayed realism. Not saying I like that realistic portrayal of life, its horrible no doubt. But There are crazy religious people in the world. Just because you didn't like that aspect about it doesn't make it a bad movie.

You're a hard guy, watching all that extreme violence. Dont stop now though, there are many more threads for you to go and tell everyone that you watch more violent films than them without getting grossed out.hurry!!!

What you dont think crap like this happens? This stuff happens in real life and not just for religious reasons, but for the sake of doing it, and even no reason at all. The world is full of psychos; youd be surprised (read shocked) at just how many there are, and worse, how normal they seem when off-dutythe Devil doesnt actually have hooves and tail.

Webster's definition of sadism includes delighting in cruelty, so I think your use of the word qualifies. Didn't the Rufus Sewell character follow the Devil? Don't his followers delight in cruelty? I find that pretty scary.
