Review of Fallen (1998) by Tony P — 03 Aug 2018
Little known Denzel Washington film from 1998.
Washington plays a homicide detective that sees copycat murders of a serial killer he has just convicted and watched die by gas chamber execution!
Before his death the serial killer Edgar Reese talks some ancient language gobbledegook and sings along to The Rolling Stones song Time Is On Your Side.
Understanding the plot felt at times like that song title as links were made to demons and the standard horror film phenomenon of bodily hosts of evil spirits.
A decent support cast including Donald Sutherland and John Goodman.
The odd Rolling Stones song saved the film for me.
Hardly a classic. The film drags at times and the plot takes to much concentration especially after a long week at work.
