The Unholy, based on James Herbert's best-selling book Shrine, follows a young hearing-impaired girl who is visited by the Virgin Mary and can suddenly hear, speak, and heal the sick. As people from near and far flock to witness her miracles, a disgraced journalist (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) hoping to revive his career visits a small New England town to investigate. As terrifying events begin to happen all around him, he starts questioning if these miracles are the works of the Virgin Mary or something much more sinister.

As terrifying events begin to happen all around him. A sneak peek 😉.

A movie some Catholics like myself will find bits a little offensive. It can make people lose trust in what they believe. Movie was made to have soft spots for some characters whilst it didn't for others... maybe they wanted the movie to go on but it the end such decisions don't really blend in any movie. I loved the special effects though and main part of the reason I'm giving this 3 stars, not the story. In the end the main lesson to be aware of is the presence of false prophets.

Mr. Morgan is the only good thing in this abysmal film. This is the worst movie I have seen in my entire life. I never walk away from a movie in the theater but I did for this one. It was falling apart at the seams. It’s categorized as horror when in reality it should be categorized as a drama. There were no jump scares. There were scenes in the film that had no real consequence to the rest of the film. It was a joke. Please do yourself a favor and don’t watch this film. Don’t buy it. If you rated it 5 stars is clear you haven’t seen it or your taste is equally abysmal.
