DemonSlayer Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Personally, I was gonna watch it, especially because of the Catholic elements of it, but after reading that review right before its release (some months ago), I decided not to watch it, because of its disrespect of Catholic religious, in having a friar sidekick who commited adultery (played by David Wenham, who was Fr. Damin de Veuster in Molokai). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paladin D Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 [quote name='Oik' date='Sep 13 2004, 10:10 PM'] Van Helsing = offensive portrayal of Catholicism [/quote] Exactly. I was looking forward to the movie. Though after hearing about the Anti-Catholic content and the USCCB review, I decided not to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
