Tough Trivia?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Ok, there was a movie pretty heavily advertised in Fango, about a war in heaven taking place on earth with Angels and Devils duking it out among men. It was to be titled "God's Army" and had soem intense creature effects. I remember a tria of Angels with dark robes, and pallid sunken skin. One of them had a blindfold of barbed wire.

Pretty wicked effect....

Well, as the story goes, the rights to this film were bought out, and "God's Army" was indeed released. But it was acquired by the Mormon church, and the movie released is a PG rated tale about LDS missionaries in America.

NOT what I wanted.

So here is the question. Was that other film ever finihsed? Was it released with a different title? Does the angel/demon sound familiar to anyone? I think there is a potentially great movie out there that may have just fallen through the cracks, and damnnit.... I want to find it.

I think what you're after is The Prophecy, starring Christopher Walken, Viggo Mortensen and Eric Stoltz.

Hmmm....

Note: to clarify, it looks like it may have been "God's Army" which turned into "The Prophecy", but I do not recall seeing this trio of dark robed demonic types in that. Maybe it was all for a quick flashback scene that I missed, but I am uncertain. or maybe the scene was cut entirely and that IS the film.

Dunno, but I sure would love to put an end to the confusion.

Here. Also known as God's Army in the UK (although where I saw the video, it was called The Prophecy).

It is 'The Prophecy' you speak of, and the black-robbed ones are indeed only in it briefly. Why it's name was changed from the kick-ass sounding 'God's Army' to the Frankenheimer-killer-mutant-bear-thoughts-inspring 'The Prophecy' the world may never know.

But yes, that is the movie.
