SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Myron Clemons
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Fulke
Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

***SPOILER*** Something like a cross between "American Psycho" which was released just six months earlier and "Se7an" the film "Sanctimony" has to do with this serial killer stalking the streets of Vancouver Canada cutting out body parts, eyes tongues and ears, of his murdered victims. There's no mystery who this psycho killer is since were introduced to him stock market whiz Tom Gerrick, Casper Van Dien, as soon as he makes his appearance on screen.Successful beyond words in everything that he does Tom is now interested in spicing up his boring life by killing people and getting away with his crimes. The only problem for Tom is that he feels that the local police are not quite up to the task to catch him in being worthy opponents so he makes it easy on them by murdering and cutting out the tongue of a 16 year old hooker and himself reporting the crime to the police. This has Vancouver homicide policeman Jim Renart, Michael Pare, and his woman partner Dorothy Smith, Jenny Rubin, interview Tom as in him being the person who first discovered her body. With all the evidence that Tom is not the innocent person that he makes himself out to be he'll still let go due to the work his high price lawyer. With him being bored to death in being right all the time Tom now really sticks his neck out in ,like in the movie "Se7en", egging on the police to arrest him by kidnapping the cop in charge of the hooker's murder Jim Renart's wife Susan, Catherine Oxenberg, and leaving her hanging outside her apartment window with a noose tied around her neck. This would have Susan's unsuspecting husband open the door thus pulling the lever, or turning the door knob, that will drop her in mid air breaking her pretty neck and killing her!The film also has an unrelated snuff film sequence where a young women is brutally murdered on video tape at this extreme fight club in the city with policeman Renalt present not more then a few yards away from the murder scene and never having a clue to what's happening. If that wasn't enough we have Tom invited to this major TV talk show to tell the audience, in the studio and watching on TV, the secret of his amazing "success" in and out of the stock market. Tom noticeably losing his cool in the mindless questions he's being asked suddenly flips out, after giving a long rambling and mindless speech on the human condition, and to the complete shock of everyone watching slices the throat of the talk show host Nat Deveaux just because he was going to a station brake!***SPOILERS*** Tom again loses it when he finds out that his killing in the market, that he expected to make millions on, was going down the tubes together with his stock portfolio then for reasons known only to himself, who by then had gone completely insane, heads for his ex fiancée's Eve's (Tanja Reichert), whom he just broke up with the night before, wedding ceremony with a new soon to be husband and without as much as saying a word guns her down and all the guests invited there! By now there was no way for the writer director Uwe Boll to salvage this turkey of a movie so it was up to Officer Renart to mercifully end it and save those of us watching as well as those in the movie any more undo suffering.

You may not believe this, but when the credits to this movie rolled, I looked for the director's name. When I saw it, I burned it into my memory and I never forgot it. This movie is beyond terrible. It makes Ed Wood's films look like Orsen Welles. At least B movies are entertaining, this was a soul deadening experience. The quality was so bad, I began to wonder who allowed this to happen.I hear Uwe Boll runs fourteen miles a day. This is because wherever his movies are viewed, the people must run him out of town with flame and pitchfork. The script was terrible, the lighting was like that of a high school football game, and the cinematography was just above the quality of Roger Patterson's Bigfoot video. The acting was executed by people too ashamed of the production to say their lines with any credibility. In the end was a film Alan Smithee wouldn't have put his name on. I learned that day to avoid any movie by this man despite the circumstances. From what I hear, this is not a bad thing to do.

I went into this movie with low expectations, knowing Uwe Boll's legacy as a film director, and screenplay writer, and I was still disappointed. Uwe Boll finds a way to make each and every movie he is involved in worse and worse. The overall concept wasn't a bad one, a man bored with his life as a stock broker becomes a serial killer. But the problem with the movie is there is no in between, he goes straight from stock broker to serial killer. The film has no-name actors, and I can see why, after watching the movie, I can't see why any actor with a career would want to even be involved in this movie. Anyone who turned it down did their careers a favor. And if you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and don't.I give Sanctimony a 3 out of 10

Sanctimony is a movie that is not rated here the US but it is kind of scary. I think this, well, kids shouldn't see it alone thats for sure. I guess it was ok, just scary! Casper Van Dien was excellent, he is a very good actor who can play horrific characters real good! I would give Sanctimony a 7!
