Based on the Korean graphic novel with the same name, Priest is the latest flick from director Scott Stewart. If you've seen Stewarts previous effort, Legion, then you pretty much know what to expect from Priest, especially considering it also stars actor Paul Bettany, who once again plays an all-around badass unstoppable character. I've only read the first graphic novel several years ago, so I can't really compare the two, but one doesn't necessarily need to know the source material to realize that the movie has changed quite a bit of the storyline.

The film is set in an alternate future, where war between vampires and humans have been going on for centuries, which eventually leads to the construction of walled cities controlled by the Church. The war against the bloodsuckers had been a futile one until the Church created an army of skilled warrior Priests that can outthink and combat the vampires accordingly. They eventually wiped out the vampire race (or so they thought), thus leading the Priests to become pointless and essentially casted off into regular society.
