Black Death (2010)

An effectively grimy 'religion sucks' movie, but it never finds direction - it takes an hour to get to the main plot, then rushes through the remaining events with a sense of resigned inevitability to everything, it never settles on a viewpoint character, and even in the last few minutes it's pushing the ostensible protagonist through an entire years-long arc.
Not surprising to find that the director re-wrote the second half of the film, sacrificing it to silly twists in the same way as he did with Triangle.
Rating: Bad
