Clash of the Titans
Thanks to the renewed interest in mythology, those of us who've remained loyal to the Greek gods won't look so crazy now sacrificing live oxen on our front lawns.
And while a blood offering is not a prerequisite to perusing this perilous parable, it does pertain to one.
Showing resentment towards the gods, the City of Argos attracts the ire of Zeus (Liam Neeson), Poseidon (Danny Huston) and Hades (Ralph Fiennes).
To teach the mortals a lesson, Hades informs the King of Argos that his daughter Andromeda will be sacrificed to the Kraken in 10 days.
Desperate to save her, the King recruits an imprisoned demigod Perseus (Sam Worthington) to seek the counsel of the Stygian Witches.
Informed by the hags that the only way to kill the Kraken is with the head of the Gorgon, the unproven protagonist must put his wits to the test.
A remake of the 1981 classic, this unwarranted overhaul fails to live up to its predecessor thanks to an wooden lead, clumsy creature designs and a schizophrenic script that's either too graphic or too goofy.
Furthermore, with Zeus' history of seducing unsuspecting women, female viewers should probably take a pregnancy test after watching this. (Red Light)
