The Church1989
“The Eleventh Commandment.”
Directed by Michele Soavi
The premise
In a Gothic cathedral built on the mass grave of a Teutonic purge, an ancient discovery by the new librarian will release an unholy maelstrom of madness, violence, and demonic vengeance.
Horror Vault's take
Beneath a towering Gothic cathedral lies a secret far older and far darker than its congregation suspects — a mass grave whose dormant evil has waited centuries for the right moment to awaken. When a curious librarian disturbs what should never have been touched, the cathedral transforms from a house of worship into a sealed trap of mounting terror and demonic chaos. Italian horror maestros Dario Argento and Michele Soavi craft a visually sumptuous descent into unholy madness that lingers long after the credits roll.
