Pretty funny entry in the son o' Satan subgenre, but not funny enough to overcome being bad.

Audience Reviews for The Chosen

Ingenious! By casting Simon Ward as Angel(o), they made one of the best actor decicions ever. His eyes have just right kind of deceptive innocence about them. Also, they certainly didn't skimp on the use of symbolism!
