    In reply to Doug Jones On Legion's Biblical Violence: "All Heaven Breaks Loose"
    "Because humanity is in a place where we might deserve another flood, like what happened in the Old Testament. "

    That's the idiotic sort of statement that really pisses me off. I just love it when people try to impose their moronic, simplistic morality on everybody else. People are just like they've always been.

    I really don't like saying things like this, but this trailer makes the movie seem EXACTLY like Tales From the Crypt: Demon Knight. And I mean EXACTLY.

    In DK, there is a tremendous group of demons converging on a single house out in the wilderness where a single chosen hero has to protect a universe-saving key from Billy Zane's seductive demon captain. So there's a group of civilians all trapped in a house, and every now and then one of them will be turned and allow himself to be possessed, thus becoming a disfigured freak and turning on the others.
