Legion looks like it’s going to be an interesting Fantasy flick coming out from Sony Pictures. The film is directed by Scott Stewart and the cast consists of Dennis Quaid, Paul Bettany, Kevin Durand, and Doug Jones. I’m definitely interested in seeing the picture when it comes out: some of the special effects look well-done. The trailer kind of reminds me of the old woman that gets possessed in Exorcist III. There’s a scene where she is climbing across the ceiling in the hospital while the detective and hospital staff remain unaware of her sinister presence in Exorcist III, and the old woman in Legion looks equally sinister and swift as she rapidly climbs the wall in the movie trailer.
The story in Legion involves an “end of the world” storyline with demons, angels, and strangers who are forced together by apocalyptic events. I’m willing to bet that these types of movies with apocalyptic story lines will be on the increase due to 2012 and the theories surrounding the date that ends the Mayan calendar.
