“12 Theses” (*1/2 out of four) was an insipid religious horror thriller about a news story from Switzerland about the 12 theses and how everyone associated with it is suddenly dying and it’s up to a determined police captain (Dugald Ferguson) and a theology student (Joanna Castelli) to find out why and how before it’s apocalypse now. Director Stefan Asang shows some style and nuances in his filmmaking and storytelling but it’s all for nothing because it’s yet another dull religious story about evil activity within the church and the end of the world. Loosely based on Herbert Blaser’s horror thriller “Cruor”; by this point there have been so many anti-church horror movies that the Vatican should sue.
