An Acrid Yarn
Tony Roberts, United States, 98 min, English language, no subtitlesA former sinner has seen the light and is on a mission in the name of God. His aim is to destroy sin, and sin is represented by a priest who tried to kill him. This priest also kills in the name of God, but has completely lost his way. In flashbacks we see what actually happened, resulting in an inevitable confrontation between priest and sinner.The action comes hard and fast, and the story is entertaining and has room for some laughs. ‘An Acrid Yarn’ has the right mix of story and action. The spectacle and murders we get to see leave nothing to the imagination, but they never take the focus away from the story.
