It’s another two-fer today for Movie Monday. This second movie trailer, The Message, also came to my attention via a follow on Twitter (by @TheMessageMovie).
I don’t know what to make of it. Here’s the tagline: “Does God really want you?” I’m not usually a big fan of movies with strong religious-themed plots. (Like Stigmata or the Seventh Sign. They were okay, but…I’m more Pagan-oriented. Christian-based fears of God and the devil don’t really stimulate my fear center like they do for others with stronger religious affiliations.)
So why am I featuring The Message? Because I’m a sucker for underdogs. @TheMessageMovie put out a call for help on Twitter to help them spread the word about their independent, low budget movie. Having found myself in need of promo help every now and then…well, I figured what can it hurt? (Then again, seeing as how I’m just a humble little blog, it’s not likely to help a whole lot either!)
Still, it was a decent trailer. It actually gave me the impression it might be a decent movie. Check it out and see what you think.
And if you want to learn more about the movie, check out their IMDB page.
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
