Based on TokyoPop’s manga, Priest follows a legendary Warrior Priest from the last Vampire War now lives in obscurity among the other downtrodden human inhabitants in walled-in dystopian cities ruled by the Church. When his niece is abducted by a murderous pack of vampires, Priest breaks his sacred vows to venture out on an obsessive quest to find her before they turn her into one of them. He is joined on his crusade by his niece’s boyfriend, a trigger-fingered young wasteland sheriff, and a former Warrior Priestess who possesses otherworldly fighting skills.
Priest stars Paul Bettany, Cam Gigandet, Maggie Q, Karl Urban, and Lily Collins.
Priest was supposed to be released this year, but as with a lot of movies recently its release was pushed back so the movie could receive 3D treatment…it will now be in theaters on May 13, 2011.
