Stigmata is a supernatural suspense story about good, evil, and faith. Frankie Paige (Patricia Arquette) is a hair stylist in her mid-20s who has no strong religious convictions until odd things start happening to her after she's given a rosary by her mother: she begins speaking with another person's voice; unknown and unseen forces start to attack her; and she develops stigmata, bleeding wounds that spontaneously appear on her wrists, feet, and side, as Christ was wounded at Calvary. Some people believe that a holy miracle has been visited on Frankie, though no one can say why. A Cardinal from the Vatican (Jonathan Pryce) sends a priest, Father Andrew Kiernan (Gabriel Byrne), to investigate Frankie and her condition; after getting a first-hand look, Father Andrew finds himself less concerned with whether Frankie's wounds are a legitimate miracle and more concerned with saving her life. Billy Corgan, leader of the rock group The Smashing Pumpkins, composed the score for Stigmata in collaboration with keyboardist Mike Garson. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

I am a horror fan afficianado - I have seen nearly every one there is. Stigmata captivated me the first time I saw it on the big screen. While it deals with a phenomenon called "Stigmata" - the movie takes the notion into a whole other arena and turns it into a brilliant movie you will be glued to for 2 hours. I ended up purchasing Stigmata and have viewed it about 10 times in the past couple of years. Topics of the film include: Catholocism, Stigmata phenomenon, Demons, Heaven, Hell, religion, etc....but make NO mistake - Stigmata is set in a modern environment and plenty of club scenes, an amazing soundtrack and modern life intertwine beautifully with religious doctrines of the Catholic church and the Stigmata scenes are quite pleasing to the horror fan. For a unique horror film you will not soon forget - I recommend Stigmata - starring Gabriel Byrne.
