SYNOPSIS:
The Catholic Church is trying to save an innocent soul from the ravages of satanic possession. Wave after wave of holy men are sent to confront the possessed.
REVIEW:
AGP: The Song of Solomon sees the return of Stephen Biro in the role of writer and director. With the Guinea Pig films, whether we’re talking the Japanese or American series, a major draw is the blood and guts and gore, the makeup and special effects, so right alongside Biro come two of the modern-day masters: Marcus Koch of Oddtopsy FX (see his work in Rot, Circus of the Dead, and We Are Still Here) and Jerami Cruise of Toetag EFX (see Tales of Halloween, Murder-Set-Pieces, and, oh yeah, August Underground’s Penance and Mordum). Add in an exorcism theme and it’s no wonder there has been such a buzz around this film ever since it was announced, which in turn has given it some pretty high expectations to live up to.
The story seems simple at first, the classic possession/exorcism tale, but it quickly becomes obvious that this is a very detailed and obviously well-researched plot. We open in Mary’s room (filmmaker and actress Jessica Cameron; Truth or Dare, Mania, The Sleeper); her father is pleading with her, asking why she is telling people that he molested her, a very strong accusation with no truth behind it. As he begs and cries, Mary seems to relish the psychological torture she’s inflicting on him. She likes it even more when he cuts his own throat open, then reaches inside and pulls his tongue out through the new slit. Mary tells her screaming mother that he did this for what is to come, and as the title hits the screen, the audience can only begin to imagine, based on the first few minutes, the nightmares that are in store for them.
AGP: The Song of Solomon is probably the most plot-heavy of all of the Guinea Pig films, delving deep into Catholicism and religious rites in order to present a very detailed exorcism story. There is talk of the Golden Bible of Antioch, the Rosary of Death, which is said to be made from the bones of saints, and the Key of Solomon, among other things. The rites and rituals performed by the priests as they attempt to save Mary are based on the actual rites taught by the Vatican. These things will no doubt be of some interest to a portion of the audience. But this is Guinea Pig film, so right along with the twists and turns and intricacies of the plot is an absolute onslaught of blood and gore. Tongues are torn through throats, arms and legs are broken, some faces are ripped off while others melt away, and there’s even a Fulci/City of the Living Dead moment of internal organs coming up and out through the mouth. And thanks to the mastery of Koch and Cruise and their teams, it’s all enough to make you a little queasy. (Horrornews . net)
