Denzel Washington plays a Detective dealing with a supernatural killer that just won't die in 1998's FALLEN.
Washington is Homicide detective John Hobbes, who gladly witnesses the execution or vile serial killer Edgar Reese.
When additional murders begin to take place after the execution, Hobbes thinks he is dealing with a copycat killer.
Soon he realizes its something much scarier.
John Goodman is great as his partner Jonesy and Donald Sutherland is the Police Captain you'll love to hate.
The film slips not so easily into "The Omen" territory and gets a bit trapped in a lot of exposition that's more dry than scary, but Washington is dependably good dealing with an evil adversary.
You'll never quite hear The Rolling Stones "Time Is On My Side" the same way again.
We'll give Fallen a B-.
