End of Days [1999] - Crisis - 02-11-2010
Plot
In 1979, an innocent newborn girl is secretly patronized by Satanists. Twenty years later, she has developed into a young woman, who is haunted by dreams about one strange man. Meanwhile, private security guard Jericho takes down an old and homeless priest, who tried to shoot Jericho's customer, a successful Wall Street Banker. What Jericho does not know is that Satan himself roams the Streets of New York in order to mate with the chosen girl. If he fails to do so in the last hour before the next millennium, his only chance to get out of his eternal prison is gone and he has to wait another thousand years. Now it is up to atheist Jericho to find the girl before Satan does and protect her from harm. But Jericho does not have a clue who he's up against...

The movie is full of things that sound interesting, but just don't work, even with the acting god himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger, I can't see giving it a good rating. However the soundtrack gets a thumbs up. I also wanted to mention the film has the weirdest death scene.... Ever.
Sorry Arnold, but I can only give it....
The Rating
Two Austrian Gunfighters in a battle with Satan out of five.

I actually own this movie. But its been soooooooo long since i have watched. I think i did like this movie tho. But i think because i am into that whole end of days kinda stuff it struck me as being interesting. And i think i got what it was actually trying to get across. So it intrigued me some.

I also "Like" it, it's sorta like Last Action Hero. You see it's bad, but You like it anyway. And Arnold's in both.

I liked this movie. Gabriel Byrne is pretty rad as Satan, when he's usually this do-gooder type. It's one of the few Ah-nahld movies I can sit through without giggling...
