Álex de la Iglesia is a filmmaker with a reputation for insanely dark humor, stark violence, and an impressive ability to blend genres. All of which are on full display in cult hits The Day of the Beast, Witching and Bitching, The Last Circus, and more. The acclaimed horror filmmaker now turns his focus on television, spinning an eight-episode series that catapults an unlikely team into a dark, foreboding conspiracy that fuels a biblical battle of good versus evil. Through de la Iglesia’s vision, a classic demonic tale of potential Vatican corruption instead becomes something far headier and more compelling based on the first seven episodes screened for review.
