DA SWEET BLOOD OF JESUS-2014-The crazy
Dr. Hightower (Rami Malek) is talked out of suicide by his colleague Dr. Hess
Greene (Stephen Tyrone Williams). Later they have a fight and Hightower stabs Greene with an
ancient knife. After Hightower finally does kill himself Greene comes
back to life as a blood drinking “vampire”. When his suicide
attempt fails he robs a blood bank (after starting a fire as a
distraction). Then he kills a hooker and drinks her blood. Mrs. Ganja
Hightower (Zaraah Abrams) arrives looking for her husband. She and Greene have sex
and she later discovers hubby's body in the basement freezer. She doesn't
really care, so she and Greene dump the body and get married. He
kills her with the knife and she comes back like him. After killing
the butler and another woman, Greene seeks redemption at a church but
dies under the sign of the cross. Ganja goes to meet her new
partner/lover: the woman they killed earlier.
Terrible talky and
pretentious remake of GANJA AND HESS that tries to modernize the story and deepen the
religious overtones. The original had its faults but it was a low
budget personal film. Here once again director Spike Lee is only looking for
attention.
Thanks for reading!
