David, now an old man, is still king of Israel. Among his sons, the ambitious Adonijah and the clever Solomon. The two young men are fierce rivals, since both are prospective heirs to the throne and only one can be successful. During a hunting expedition, Adonijah challenges his younger brother Solomon to a chariot race. While Solomon, though brave, still retains a modicum of caution, the daredevil Adonijah is eager to win at all costs -- and loses control of his chariot. Solomon takes the seriously injured Adonijah back to Jerusalem. On the way there they meet the attractive Abishag, who despite her youth is versed in the use of healing herbs. She actually succeeds in helping the prince. Adonijah falls in love with Abishag -- but Bathsheba arranges things so that she works for David, hoping that her youth, her beauty and her healing powers will soothe the old king's suffering. Several members of the influential priesthood and also the respected army general Joab, who served David loyally for many years, support Adonijah's claim to the throne-- even though David has still not made any decision with regard to a potential successor. The battle-experienced Joab regards Solomon as an indecisive weakling, under whose leadership the kingdom would soon fall apart. When the prophet Nathan finds out about Adonijah's conspiracy he informs Bathsheba and Solomon, who urge David to take immediate action. And so it comes to pass that preparations to anoint the future king of Israel are made both at the Spring of Enrogel, where Adonijah and his men are encamped, as well as in Jerusalem. The festive procession for Adonijah has already been assembled and the people enticed with delicious delicacies to cheer him on, when the news of Solomon's coronation reaches Enrogel. The people promptly acknowledge the will of King David and stream off to Jerusalem in their hordes to greet Solomon, their future ruler. Adonijah remains behind with a handful of loyal followers. He realizes that he has lost -- for the time being. Humbly he places his life in his brother's hands. Adonijah is forgiven on one condition: that he always remains loyal to his brother Solomon. The great King David is dead, and his son Solomon has succeeded him as the rightful ruler of Israel. Adonijah now has a request to make of Bathsheba: he wants to marry Abishag. Solomon hears about this seemingly innocent wish, and recognizes it as a renewed ploy on behalf of his brother to reclaim the throne -- Adonijah's marriage to the last woman to share King David's bed would strengthen his political position considerably. Solomon knows that he has to act quickly and decisively if he is to secure his own power. He has his brother Adonijah and the latter's closest associate Joab executed. After this radical decision, Solomon withdraws to present sacrifices. In a dream the Lord appears to him and grants him the fulfillment of a wish, whatever it may be. Solomon merely asks for wisdom -- in order to become a good ruler and judge. War with Egypt is looming. To arm his kingdom against the territorial ambitions of its powerful neighbors, Solomon not only introduces several reforms but also decides to marry the daughter of the pharaoh. The Egyptian princess does not remain Solomon's only wife, however: as time goes by the king marries numerous noble women from many different countries for political and economic reasons. In this way he preserves peace for his people, and creates great prosperity. By allowing the women to continue practicing their domestic customs and religious rituals in Jerusalem as well, he comes into regular conflict with the priesthood, who see the foreign religions as endangering Israel's sole covenant with the Lord. The wisdom granted to Solomon by God becomes fully evident when the king sits in judgment. One day two harlots each claim to be mother of the same baby. Solomon's decision seems utterly cruel: he says that the child should be cut in two so that each woman receives half. Solomon can now determine who the real mother is from her reaction: she will not allow her child to be harmed. Solomon hands the child back to its true mother amid cheers of approval. One of the most important tasks handed down to Solomon by his father David is building the great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. It has to be larger and more magnificent than all other temples in the world, and Solomon now sets about fulfilling his father's wish. He places Jeroboam in charge of the Israelite workers as chief overseer. Seven years later, the work is completed. The expensive construction materials have been brought from far-off lands, and the people of Israel have paid exceedingly high taxes without complaint in order to finance the construction work. The Ark of the Covenant can now finally be taken to the Temple in a triumphant procession. After so many years of wandering, the Israelites' most sacred possession now has a fixed home of its own. People stream to Jerusalem from across the entire country to celebrate the great day. Abishag, now married, comes too and brings her family. Solomon has decided to mingle among the people in disguise, and he and Abishag are overjoyed when they accidentally meet again after so many years. The Temple makes Jerusalem and its king famous throughout the world. Even the dark-skinned Queen of Sheba sets off with a large retinue to visit the wise and cultivated Solomon and admire his magnificent city. The admiration turns out to be mutual: Solomon, captivated by her beauty, falls deeply in love with her. The two of them have a child, Menelik, but one day the Queen of Sheba decides to leave. She does not want Menelik to be deprived of the regal dignity awaiting him in his home country. Solomon stays behind, with a heavy heart. The king has now achieved everything he set his heart on, but with the passing of the years the wise Solomon gradually becomes a melancholy, skeptical old man who regularly questions his very existence. Material things seem to represent the only reality for him. He also refuses to adopt any kind of steady policy, especially in religious matters. With his foreign wives, Solomon sacrifices to foreign gods, and this incurs the wrath of the priesthood. The loyal Jeroboam appeals to his king's conscience, but to no avail. During one of Solomon's sorties in disguise among his people, a simple farmer reminds him of the first of the Ten Commandments revealed by the Lord to Moses: "You shall have no other gods before me." At another decisive moment, God Himself speaks to Solomon and announces the punishment for his sinfulness: the kingdom will collapse after Solomon's death. The king has grown old and weary. He has lost touch with the people of Israel, who are suffering from heavy taxation and forced labor. Solomon has treated his long-standing companion Jeroboam, to whom he entrusted the administration of the northern tribes, with murderous anger ever since a prophet predicted the division of the kingdom to him. The king no longer has the strength to change things -- he just leaves them as they are. The consequences of this become clear shortly after his death. Solomon's son and successor Rehoboam treats the country's leaders with arrogance, and provokes the division of the kingdom into two parts: the only tribe still loyal to him is that of Judah, while all the others unite under Jeroboam. The prophecy has been fulfilled. The kingdom that Solomon received from his father David, and invested with such might and magnificence, is now divided.
魔化的耶稣，魔化的圣母玛利亚，恶魔打入了梵蒂冈总部。导演脑洞真大啊！
反向驱魔的设定很有意思，两边对攻式驱魔哈哈，恶魔驱逐上帝。结尾的被附身的囚犯丧尸化追着人跑让人一点都严肃不起来，笑出声了。
是我天真了，我以为又是一个普通的误入歧途的牧师最终成为真正上帝仆人的故事。额，编剧真的不是反基督吗……
牛逼在意想不到的概念上，框架烂了点，题材牛逼，反向驱魔肺活量大师，讽刺得好。
the way she’s a little bit unnerved sexually when she sees his dick is just weird (and tbh a bit distasteful, no blowjob jokes intended)
7《驱神》，主旨非常反类型、反正统，表现方式也在驱魔片里非常离奇，近乎丧尸片，开头那段是我看过最骚的驱魔
故事没啥意思 最后反向驱魔有点讽刺 善恶一体
打斗和丧尸片一样烂，情节像超级英雄片一样扯，起码有个驱上帝的乐子，给个四星不过分吧
有点新意的驱魔片，驱魔师和恶魔互行驱逐仪式，一个要驱走附身对方的恶魔，一个要驱走附身对方的上帝……。🤪🤣
2结尾神父的女儿过来抓住了神父的手，手上凸显一道红印，结合神父说的“上天也出了牌”和神父的女儿眼中露出的白光（剧中恶魔眼中都是绿色的光），Balban附体了神父，上帝也应该选了和他有血缘关系的女儿。
故事很短小简单，还好吧不算恐怖，角度倒是蛮新奇
看看还不错吧！挺有脑洞创意的（恶魔驱上帝）。神父的女儿很漂亮。神父最终妥协于恶魔达成交易，换回了女儿和其它人的生命。最后一幕从神父的眼睛可以看出恶魔是附身于神父体内的，然后女儿的眼睛却出现了上帝的圣光。看来结尾神父踏上梵蒂冈之途这是在下一盘很大的棋啊。不知还有没有下一部，挺好奇是否还会出现什么天马行空的驱魔故事和刺激的电影画面！
歲末寒冬爆米花佳片，回溫5度就會覺得無聊老套拖拉沒靈魂。
本片最大的亮点就是恶魔驱逐牧师心中的上帝这个设定，驱逐的过程，给我的感觉就是谁大声谁更有底气，谁就赢了。最后正不胜邪，牧师被附身。但除此之外，其他情节跟别的驱魔片差不多
把打工人的脸摁在地上磨蹭啊，从开篇男主叫女主shortcake已经可以report给HR了，我尼玛。
剧情一般，但是上帝与恶魔斗法的情节设定还是很有新意的，我愿称之为欧美驱魔片中的翘楚！
sex tension is there.女主年轻还能看看，年纪大了还是得转型。。
海报的灯光穿透门与地下形成的倒十字架已经透漏了地狱与魔鬼的强大（与之神父的小相比），与魔鬼做交易是个挺有意思的话题，但是拍出来的魔鬼的形象更多的是恶心，有点出戏
？？？搞了半天驱的不是魔是上帝，然后恶魔接管梵蒂冈，这脑回路也是真够清奇了
就跟国内观念差别还是很大的，也许是我见识少了吧。女主够直接的，整挺好
