Get Thee Behind Me

About This Movie

Get Thee Behind Me is a fascinating exploration of temptation and desire though it's wrapped in absurdity. The film's tone balances the serious undertones of the priests' struggles with a strange, almost comical take on their battles with lust. The pacing is uneven at times, which adds to its charm, as it reflects the chaotic nature of the characters' lives. Practical effects here take a backseat to the performances, which are surprisingly earnest despite the zany scenarios. What stands out is how it twists religious themes into something both provocative and humorous, making it a unique entry in the realm of erotic comedies.

This film is somewhat of a rarity and has gained a niche following among collectors who appreciate its blend of humor and taboo. It's been released in a couple of limited formats, but finding a well-preserved copy can be challenging. Its unconventional approach sets it apart, making it an interesting discussion piece in the context of erotic cinema and religious satire.
