Christopher Walken leads an extraordinary cast including Eric Stoltz, Virginia Madsen, Elias Koteas, Amanda Plummer and Viggo Mortensen in a terrifying, supernatural thriller of heavenly war waged on Earth by renegade angels. When Thomas Daggett (Elias Koteas) falls victim to confusing and horrific dreams, he abandons the church at his ordination into the priesthood. Years later as a homicide detective assigned to a grisly murder case, he discovers a series of clues with dark religious overtones. Then begins a race against time to prevent the dead man’s evil soul from falling into the hands of Gabriel (Christopher Walken) who seeks to take control of Heaven from God and destroy humanity itself.
