So, I’m at home over Christmas and the wife and I decide to watch a scary movie. I like campy; she likes thrillers. We are looking through the On Demand selections and we see French and both think artsy. We ended up with Crappy.
The movie is about a team of paranormal commandos that the French government sends to knock off ghouls and such. The team consists of a Transvestite, a psychic child, and Bloody Mallory who is the ass kicker. The pope is kidnapped, but he’s a demon anyway, and the world gets saved from evil . . .or something. Its really bad . . . but not wholly without any legal matters:
1. This teams shows up and kills goblins, vampires, demons, etc., because they are a government led team this could lead to a question of metalaw and what sorts of rights to non human entities recieve.
2. Mallory has to contact her dead demon husband whom she killed and sent to Limbo. There is an entire code that governs these transactions (and they quote it alot).
3. The pope is giving a speech in Paris in which he condemns Abortion and Same Sex Marriage. He refers to them as the “axis of evil.” The French really do hate us: George W. got compared to a demon Pope.
4. Mallory has “Fuck Evil” tattooed on her hands. Is this a philosophical equation of law with morality? The world may never know (at least lets hope they don’t ever know … a sequel would be a bad idea).
