Summary: Horror fans will have fun with this
Review: SOULKEEPER opens with a scene that rips off the cllmax of RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, then moves to the present day as two thieves impersonating Abe Lincoln scam a Civil War enactment at a museum, which results in an amusing impromptu performance in order to save their skins.
But although the heist is a success they get dumped by their boss "Mr M", who addresses them via intercom a la CHARLIE'S ANGELS. To cheer up they head to a bar where they meet two foxy ladies who are a bit odd to say the least. They lead them to a strange man, who has the worst French accent on the planet; who offers the guys a large sum of money to go on a quest to find the Ark Of Lazarus. Just like that. This leads the duo on a journey through their wildest fantasies and worst nightmares...
SOULKEEPER is surprisingly fun; with cheesy FX and set pieces (especially the graveyard), tongue in cheek humor, some good gore scenes and lesbian sex, this one's pretty good. My only quibble is that director/ screenwriter Darin James Ferriola seems to be making everything up as he goes,but despite that SOULKEEPER is worth watching.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Surprisingly entertaining
Review: This is the type of movie that sounds like it will be incredibly stupid...and it is. In a good way. A cross between "Dude, Where's My Car?" and "The Exorcist," this movie borders on parody. The main characters (especially the perennially confused Corey) provide a running commentary on the bizarre action of the movie that any skeptic would enjoy.
Obviously, this is a movie best enjoyed at 3 am with one's best friends - not a cinematic masterpiece. It has no redeeming qualities as a work of art, and the catchphrase ("Do you believe in the power of the human soul") is repeated more times than I could keep count of. Still, it's an entertaining piece of fluff with a surprisingly sweet ending worth seeing once.

Rating: 1 stars
