Amazon.co.uk Review
Seas boil, heavens fall, and Demi Moore takes a candlelit bath in this effective apocalyptic chiller. The prosthetic-enhanced Moore plays a pregnant non-believer whose baby may hold the key to impending Armageddon. Logic is not exactly the strong point in this well-acted, stylish, theological grab bag, but the random collection of horrific images manages to work more often than not in this acceptable time waster for fans of The Omen and The Exorcist. Also starring Michael Biehn (The Terminator), the always-welcome John Heard in a brief cameo and the exceptional Juergen Prochnow as a mysterious stranger who could either be from the extreme North or way, way down South. --Andrew Wright

 "I came as the lamb but I return as the lion." December 22, 2007
Trevor Willsmer (London, England)
The Seventh Sign, a surprisingly effective piece of Apocalyptic guf from the days when Demi Morre's breasts were still real and she could still play likeable characters. It's quite shameless in the way it invents additional verses to the Bible to support its hotchpotch of apocalyptic predictions and throws in elements from everything from The Wandering Jew to Rosemary's Baby, yet it all works surprisingly well, mostly because the cast and director Carl Schultz take it completely seriously, even pulling off a surprisingly touching ending. Clearly the Fundamentalists were too busy threatening to firebomb the theatres playing The Last Temptation that season to note the film's own unique interpretation of a pissed-off Christ who has lost all patience with humanity: "I came as the lamb but I return as the lion."
No extras aside from trailers for About Last Night and Mortal Thoughts, but a fairly good 2.35:1 widescreen transfer.
 What a Great Story! January 2, 2005

I saw this film when it first came out on the big screen in the the 80s and I loved it.I'm not a big Demi Moore fan, but I thought she was great in this. It's a movie with a fine cast and a wonderfully, memorable story that will leave you touched. So touched, that I burst into tears the next day when I was telling my Mom about it! If you like the "good v evil" theme, this is definately worth a go.

What a great movie! The story grips you and takes you all the way with special effects and good dialogue. It will make you want to read the Book of Revelations! I did!
