Blurb
Refugee gods, transposed to flesh and blood, wash ashore to rouse the myths of ancient England, half-drowned in a forgotten past. They disperse through shifting realities to awaken the giant Albion and find the holy grail in a ritual to save England from the rot of darkness and hatred strangling its soul.
Ornery Owl's Thoughts
This film is classified as horror, but I didn't see it as horrific or shocking. It is a retelling of Pagan myths set in modern times. I saw the deities made flesh and their behaviors as similar to Jungian archetypes, the unconscious mind expressing itself through these stories. Civilized people are taught to keep their fears hidden. A deity is not constrained by mortal rules.
I recommend this movie to viewers who are interested in mythology and psychology. Viewers looking for a thriller are likely to find this film's pace too slow.
