Quiver With Fear: The Movie of Pope John Paul II

Run! Hide! Seek shelter! Lord help us, we’re getting another Christian MOW (Movie Of the Week).

This time around, that young, hip, rock ‘n roller, John Paul II. (ABC’s “Have No Fear: The Life of Pope John Paul II“)

Part of me wants to watch this gem, airing on ABC on December 1st.

Only I remember watching a Hallmark movie a few years ago called Noah’s Ark.

Now. [cough]. Talk about your disaster movies. In this case, a disaster OF a movie.

The Noah’s Ark MOW was about many things. Just not the Biblical Noah’s Ark.

In short, it was a fiasco. The worst waste of film I’ve ever seen to attempt [and fail] to tell a story from the Bible.

Now here comes ABC’s take on Pope John Paul II.

I hope the writer’s life insurance is up to date. Me? I’d advise folks to steer clear of those same writers. You wouldn’t want to be near them when the lightning bolts start flying.
