The story involves themes of prophecy, possession, and a battle between good and evil.
Critics have generally given the film negative reviews. Dennis Harvey of Variety described it as “a lively if overstuffed popcorn diversion,” comparing it to The Da Vinci Code and Rosemary’s Baby. Matt Donato from IGN rated it 6 out of 10, calling it a “high-concept religious action flick with horror influences” that “sells its ambitions short but still entertains despite itself.”
