Sinopsis
Un sacerdote cree haber encontrado el mensaje secreto del Apocalipsis según San Juan: el Anticristo nacerá el 25 de diciembre en Madrid. Para detener este suceso, el cura se une a un joven aficionado al death metal intentando por todos los medios descubrir en qué parte de Madrid tendrá lugar el apocalíptico evento. Con la ayuda del profesor Cavan, que presenta un programa de televisión sobre lo sobrenatural, el cura deberá enfrentar la llegada del Ángel Oscuro, en el profetizado día de la Bestia.

Synopsis: The story revolves around a Basque Roman Catholic priest dedicated to committing as many sins as possible (Angulo), a death metal salesman from Carabanchel (Segura), and the Italian host of a TV show on the occult (De Razza). These go on a literal "trip" through Christmas-time Madrid to hunt for and prevent the reincarnation of the Antichrist.

5.0 out of 5 stars ...666..., January 1, 2008

This review is from: El Dia De La Bestia (The Day Of The Beast) [NTSC/REGION 1 & 4 DVD. Import-Latin America] (DVD)

I would like to explain the whole plot about this movie like other reviewers do, but I hate that, so I will not. If you find a crazy guy dressed as a priest and he tells you that today is the end of the world, think twice before you call the cops or your local mental asylum cause maybe this would be the adveture of your life.
Thumbs up Alex De La Iglesia for this awesome flick, great cast, photography, music (Def Con Dos performing as Satanika), special effects, etc. Believe me, this is a damn good film.

A priest, a death metal nutjob, a talkshow host and Satan. I can't believe this hasn't been released in the US.

This review is from: El Dia De La Bestia (The Day Of The Beast) [NTSC/REGION 1 & 4 DVD. Import-Latin America] (DVD)

Although the picture shown is from the european DVD the one that ships is the Mexican edition, which transfer to dvd is below standard. sadly the movie (arguably the best in spanish cinema history) suffers big time. I will never buy from viveros2007 again. Once again if you are planning on buying this item... I strongly recommend to download it from any torrent (even if this breaks copyright laws), because picture quality is gonna be 1000 times better!!
Sorry viveros2007... had to be said. Next time show the right picture in the product description. Highly dissapointed...
