The Day of the Beast (El día de la Bestia) is a 1995 Spanish
black comedy horror action film.
The story revolves around a Basque Roman Catholic priest
dedicated to committing as many sins as possible, a death metal salesman from
Carabanchel, and the Italian host of a TV show on the occult. By committing
multiple sins, the priest hopes to sell his soul, so that he can be at the
birth of the Antichrist and kill it before it can destroy the world.
The priest and the death metal salesmen kidnap the host, so
he can help them in summoning the devil. The ritual requires the blood of a
virgin and while on his quest to get it, the priest accidentally kills the
salesmen's mother and close friend. During the ritual, in which the main
characters go on an "acid trip", the devil manifests and, not being
fooled by the priest’s actions, he does not reveal the location of the
Antichrist.
The trio eventually track down the birthplace of the
Antichrist. The salesman is killed by the Antichrist and the devil's minions
attack and badly burn the host, but the priest is able to kill them and the
Antichrist. After the events, the priest and the host become homeless drifters.
