The Chosen One Review
The Chosen One is ridiculous amounts of fun to watch. Right off the bat you get Tim Curry as a golden-haired, snappily-dressed Lucifer, introducing the characters and story, centering around Lou (perfectly played by Chad Fifer), who is having the roughest day imaginable - fired, dumped by his girlfriend (Laura Prepon of That 70s Show fame), kicked out of the apartment he shares with his old man room-mate (Chris Sarandon of Princess Bride and Nightmare Before Christmas wonderful-ness)...and lots more stuff you can only achieve with animation unless you have millions of dollars to spend on effects and bears. Chris Lackey - director and lead animator does an awesome and hilarious job with what he has been quoted as calling his 'crappy animation'.
My family watched it together and everyone from the 7 year old, through the cynical teenagers, to my 84 year old Catholic grandmother, completely loved it. The satire on organized religion (Lou is declared The Chosen One by The Church of Frank, who send him to Kansas to meet God - and all the major religions are dispatched to stop him - Lance Henriksen of Aliens is a particular favorite as a Cardinal) is gentle but thought-provoking.
Highly recommended!

The Chosen One Overview
A life in the day of Lou Hanske sucks. Take today for example, he s been attacked by a bear, his car s totaled and then he loses his job. Lou thinks life can t get much worse -- Boy is he wrong when this down-on-his-luck lab technician is discovered by a cult that believe he is the chosen one . The only one who can speak to God, really cool right? Wrong, now he must travel with his cranky old roommate Zeb (Chris Sarandon) to Kansas and deliver the world into the new age. Oh, did we mention that along the way he must overcome The Prince of Hell aka The Devil (Tim Curry), Ninjas, Thugs for hire, Femme Fatales (Traci Lords, Debra Wilson), the baddest group of priests this side of Purgatory and one mean Robot! And of course enlightenment comes with a price that could mean forever losing the love of his life, Donna(Danielle Fishel) or turning the world into darkness
