10 Upcoming Movies That Genuinely Sound Like Jokes

3. Christ The Lord

Release: March 26th, 2016 The Pitch: Audiences worldwide can't get enough of biblical epics... Oh no, wait. That's not right is it? Oh well, no matter, as Focus Features are still pushing ahead with the long-gestating adaptation of Anne Rice's Jesus Christ sort of biography. Anyone dreaming of an epic that sees Jesus battling vampires in a New Testament prequel (it's only a matter of time), should relax, as Rice had put her horror writing aside for a minute and rediscovered her love of God. The Punch-Line: It's a year in life of Jesus, but before he did any miracles. So basically it's a year in the life of a normal 7-year-old boy struggling to find himself in pre-Biblical Egypt. And Rice, incredibly has turned her back on Christianity again since writing it, so it's hard to take it seriously at all.
