位于美国北卡罗莱纳州温斯顿沙兰市（Winston Salem）的RJR纳贝斯克饼干公司股 东们，虽然受到全球瞩目，金钱不断涌入，光是在２月底的邮件中，就收到总数达２０ 亿美圆的支票，但很少有股东对公司的高级执行总裁罗斯.强生（Ross Johnson）心存 感激。现在，温斯顿沙兰市也变成前所未有的百万富翁市。所有与RJR公司有关的华尔街 大亨都想从中分到一点好处，于是罗斯找来财务专家亨利和彼得来为他效力。接下来上演的便是一出充满贪婪、背叛、尔虞我诈和高风险赌注的华尔街风云。
根据布莱恩.巴勒和约翰.海勒撰写的《Barbarians at the Gate: The Fall of RJR Nabisco》中文译名：《门口的野蛮人：RJR纳贝斯克的陨落》改编。
该书描写了1988年美国第二大烟草公司RJR融资收购饼干生产商Nabisco的交易。即使如今看来，这笔总额达250亿美元的收购也十分惊人，不禁让人对有关人物的行动产生 疑虑。当时，这也是华尔街历史上最大的收购资金。而1989年美国Kohlberg KravisRoberts 公司又以314亿美元的价格刷新了此纪录，其收购对象就是RJR Nabisco公司。

In 2013, an Australian man a few months shy of turning 60 decided to walk the Camino de Santiago – an 800km pilgrimage trail across the top of Spain. He had no known religion, and absolutely no idea why he felt so deeply compelled to do this torturous walk.
But compelled, he was.
He completed the walk, battling a “triumvirate of pain” - a knee that he later discovered lacked any meaningful cartilage, a blister the sight of which would make a grown man weep, and shin-soreness that felt like his lower limb had been split with a mountain axe wielded by a demented troll.
Arriving at the end of the Camino, the majestic cathedral in Santiago de Compostela, he expected an epiphany – an answer to the question he’d been asking himself every day: Why am I doing this?
But no answer came.
So when he got home he wrote a book, hoping the answer would reveal itself in his scribblings. The result was The Way, My Way, a humourous and self-deprecating book that many consider the best memoir ever written on walking the Camino.
The book has now been made into a film, and it’s an extraordinary account of a man at a pivotal point in his life, searching for meaning and finding himself undergoing a fundamental transformation so profound that he now divides his life into “Before the Camino” and “After the Camino.”
It’s a story particular to one man, yet of appeal to anyone seeking a greater meaning from life.
When, at the beginning of Deus Irae, Father Javier stares at a crucifix, his expressions and his hands suggest that the nerves are consuming him. A flashback reveals that this priest devotes his life to visiting families that claim to have seen things that do not belong to this world and cleansing their homes from the demons that try to possess them. But, upon returning to those houses, he notices that the evidence is always destroyed. This way, he discovers that a clan is after him, and must decide whether to hide from them or join them. In times when horror cinema tends to fall into the hands of directors that seek to build narratives that are introspective and close to reality, Pedro Cristiani goes back to old-school horror, where gore and the physical experience are above any other kind of feeling. A cinema that places the camera in front of the faces of the bloodiest demons and, instead of giving logic to them, chooses to face them whatever the cost.
