Priest

Movie Rating: Melanie Zahar

A priest defies the church to save his niece, who has been kidnapped by vampires.

After centuries of fierce battle between humans and vampires, a special team of priests formed to vanquish the bloodsuckers finally wins. Although deprived of every kind of freedom, the population lives in safety, enclosed in fortress cities under the control of the church. The priests, now marginalized, are feared and pitied. But the vampires have not completely disappeared and soon one of these fallen priests is forced to defy religious dogma to save his niece, who has been kidnapped by the evil beasts...

This post-apocalyptic western and ragtag sci-fi adapted from a Korean manga is successful thanks to a great deal of CGI – with very good 3D effects, which is so rare these days that it's worthy of comment.
