Savage Messiah

Mario Azzopardi – 2002 – Canada

Very hokey Canadian movie, based on a true case, about a cult leader known as Moses (Luc Picard).  I’m usually a sucker for anything having to do with cults, but this film plays like a Lifetime channel production; i.e. strong but troubled woman (Polly Walker) helps rescue other troubled women from an evil man.  Factual or not, the plot is so formulaic, and the style so predictable, that I lost interest by the midway-point.
