Brief synopsis of The Sin Eater

Alex Bernier (Ledger) is a member of an arcane order of priests known as Carolingians. When the head of the order dies, Alex is sent to Rome to investigate mysterious circumstances surrounding the death. The body bears strange marks on the chest which may or may not be the sign of a Sin Eater (Furmann), a renegade who offers absolution, last rites and therefore a path to heaven outside the jurisdiction of the church. Alex enlists the aid of his old comrade Father Thomas (Addy) and of a troubled artist (Sossamon) upon whom he once performed an exorcism. He soon finds himself plunged into a mystery only to find himself at the heart of it.

Rated - 4 starsInteresting subject

JustKewl from Ipswich [Highly rated reviewer] , 25/08/2008

I never knew that was such a thing as a Sin Eater until I watched this movie. I find these kinds of subjects are always fascinating. This film has a resemblance to 'The Davinci Code'. A fair bit of intrique and sacrifice can be had in this story. Heath Ledger's performance is very real in this film. A lot of dramatic scene and some bordering of the horrific however, this isn't strickly a horror film.

Very highly recommended.
