Hannibal Lecter believed that good and evil had nothing to do with God. Even so, fantasy regularly returns to the theme of confrontation between angels and demons, delving into fascinating stories from the recesses of one’s own soul. We found many excellent films and series that tell about the struggle between the minions of hell and the supporters of heaven.
“Good Omens”
The series is based on the fantasy of the same name by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. Michael Sheen and David Tennant, who play the angel Aziraphale and the demon Crowley, have lived on earth for so long that they have become friends. After learning about the upcoming apocalypse, they come to the conclusion that neither heaven nor hell can be compared with earthly pleasures. Instead of choosing sides, they try to prevent the end of the world so they can continue to enjoy life.
“Constantine”
The series is based on Alan Moore’s Hellblazer comic book series. The story focuses on exorcist John Constantine. His soul is cursed and he is going to hell, so he abandons his career as a fighter for good, but not until he learns that demons are targeting his friend Liv’s daughter. The duet was performed by Matt Ryan and Lucy Griffiths.
“Preacher”
Film adaptation of Garth Ennis’ graphic novel of the same name. Reverend Jesse Custer became the bearer of the Creation creature, born from the union of an angel and a demon. Therefore, he is the only one who can challenge God. And now Caster must fight against the evil entities that stand in her way. And his vampire friend Cassidy and ex-girlfriend Tulip will help him in this. Starring Dominic Cooper, Joseph Gilgun and Ruth Negga.
“Dogma”
Ben Affleck and Matt Damon play fallen angels Bartleby and Loki, who are doomed to live forever in Wisconsin. The friends suddenly have a chance to return to heaven, but to do so they must pass through an arch in the cathedral and receive absolution for their sins. But there is a problem: if the work fails, then everything that exists, including humans, will disappear from the face of the earth. Then along come Jesus’ great-great niece Bethany and her minions, the thirteenth apostle Rufus, the two deadly sins, and the stripper Muse Serendipity, played by Salma Hayek.
“Legion”
God was completely disappointed in humanity and called upon the angels of death to destroy his creation. Only Archangel Michael sided with the people. He gathers the remaining outcasts under his command in a restaurant in the middle of the desert and patiently awaits the birth of the Messiah. The main role was played by Paul Bettany.
“The Ninth Gate”
Johnny Depp stars as Dean Corso, a rare book dealer who comes into possession of a 17th-century hardcover book titled “The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Ghosts.” According to legend, it tells how to summon Lucifer. To determine if this is real, the hero will need to embark on a dangerous journey, unravel the mystery of the message, and confront real demons.
“Lucifer”
Bored lord of Hell Lucifer Morningstar (Tom Ellis) abdicates the throne and heads to Los Angeles, where he opens the Lux club. He enjoys fun and the company of beautiful women until a pop star is murdered in his establishment.
