El Apóstol

Un preso recién fugado de la cárcel intenta recuperar el botín que escondió unos años antes en una remota y solitaria aldea; pero lo que allí se encuentra supone una condena peor que la cárcel. Siniestros ancianos, extrañas desapariciones, espíritus, un peculiar sacerdote y hasta el mismísimo arcipreste de Santiago protagonizan una historia de terror, humor y fantasía. Primera producción de stop-motion con plastilina hecha en España.

Hay condenas de las que no se puede escapar

Euliss F. "Sonny" Dewey (Duvall) is a charismatic (movement) Pentecostal preacher. His wife Jessie (Fawcett) has begun an adulterous relationship with a youth minister named Horace. She refuses Sonny's desire to reconcile, although she assures him that she will not interfere with his right to see his children. She has also conspired to use their church's bylaws to have him removed from power. Sonny asks God what to do but receives no answer. Much of the congregation sides with Jessie in this dispute. Sonny, however, refuses to start a new church, insisting that the one which forced him out was "his" church. At his child's Little League game, Sonny, in an emotional and drunken fit, attacks Horace with a bat and puts him into a coma; Horace later dies.
