It was too obviously Christian for a secular audience, but it was a bit too riske for a Christian audience. Gotta say it was a gutsy move to make a film so blatently Christian in today's world. That alone impresses me. I love the story, though. I'm not one to be picky about special effects (which were pretty bad) just so long as the story is creative and fascinating. And I LOVED the end.

This movie is more of a comedy than a horror. Beyond the attractive qualities of the young leads, there was not much to enjoy about this flick. Even good actors like Diane Ladd and Sean Patrick Flanery give poor performances. The only thing that made this movie worth viewing (in my opinion) was the vocal stylings of Mr Flanery (yes, I watched the credits and was really him singing).

I love the music in this movie

If anyone ever comes in here and knows where i can get some of this music i would be greatful.

Despite a name cast and a couple of Oscar veterans, this silly film has little going for it.

Sean Patrick Flanery, who is still trying to find that star making role, is a down and out musician with a cute girlfriend. She is hired as a backup singer for Michael Pare, who is pushing a one world order with the backing of...oh, I don't know...could it be...SATAN. Flanery has religious fanatics grandma Shelley Winters and evangelist Diane Ladd on his side, for what that is worth.

The pseudonym Alan Smithee is used by directors who take their name off a project, and I was surprised to not see it used more throughout the credits. Five different writers are credited with a script that features more holes than an Afghani cave complex. Michael Pare finally gets to use the guitar face that made "Eddie and the Cruisers" so successful, but the songs here are all really tepid and uninteresting. Speaking of tepid, the special effects are awful, I have seen better use of computer animation on local television ads.

I cannot imagine the film makers started out with such a cheap idea, but after getting the cast, that is what the film degenerated into. "Raging Angels" is a cool title to an otherwise bland film.

This is rated (R) for physical violence, some gun violence, some profanity, and sexual content.

This is an ok movie. Adequate but nothing too exciting. I only got it because of Michael Pare` who is ,as usual, quite fine in his part. The story line is another "cult" theme where the bad guys are collecting people for nefarious reasons... not a bad movie for a dark rainy evening.
