| User ReviewWalter GWith her father... A priest is put in a compromising situation when a murder confesses that he has been killing priests and nurses because they are responsible for the death of his daughter. How could the church be responsible for the death of a child? The priest will do some digging on the murders and how they are tied into the deceased little girl. "The neighborhood is not very safe." Fred Walton, director of When a Stranger Calls (1979), April Fool's Day, Dead Air, The Courtyard, The Stepford Husbands, and Homewrecker, delivers The Rosary Murders. The storyline for this picture is very interesting with a couple fascinating twists and turns. The action sequences are well presented and the soundtrack fits the movie perfectly. The cast delivers solid performances and includes Donald Sutherland, Charles Durning, and Roger Angelini. "She had completely changed." I was reading a book that referenced an old movie with Donald Sutherland where he dies on the steps of a church. I thought this may be the film but I was incorrect. I'll keep searching. I did think this was a clever movie with some interesting sequences that made it worth watching. I recommend seeing this film if you're a fan of the genre (criminal dramas). "You're saving souls not lives." Grade: B |
