Dangerous Calling follows the story of Pastor Evan Burke and his wife Nora as they assume leadership of First Baptist Willit Springs after the mysterious death of the previous pastor.

Eager to get to know the new pastor, Miss Pat (Jackie Prucha), the church's controlling widow-woman, invites Evan and Nora to stay with her while she has the parsonage renovated. Left alone at Miss Pat's beautiful home in the mountains of North Georgia, Nora begins to suspect that Miss Pat's extremely sheltered adult son, Elijah, may have had something to do with the previous pastor's death.

They soon learn that some secrets are best left buried.

Dangerous Calling is actually a movie I've had for a while and never got around to watching due to my overly busy schedule. When I finally sat down to watch it this past weekend, I was quite pleased with how well thought-out it is!

The storyline, though not unheard of, is not your typical everyday situation - and really left me reflecting on the fact that this DOES happen in some churches.

An overly controlling widow who feels she owns the Church, manipulating everyone in her path as a subtle/cunning character that only Jackie Prucha could have brought to life! I totally loved her in this movie! Yes, she was the "bad guy" but her acting was excellent - sending chills down my spine et al.

I gave the acting quality a 4-star rating only because there were parts where it could have been better - but overall, it was engaging (yeah that's the word).
I don't know why I was expecting everyone to live happily ever after, but some main characters did die in the movie, and that was another shot of reality... but eventually, God was glorified. I like the way the movie displays the sovereignty of God despite the shortcomings of the Church.

I think the Daws Bros did a good job with this one... hope the next one is better!
