Priest (2011 film)/YMMV

Growing the Beard: Volume 3, as noted by Mike Carey.
High Octane Nightmare Fuel: Lots.
Tear Jerker: The conclusion of Nera's arc is easily the most depressing thing in the series.

Cliché Storm
Crowning Music of Awesome: The trailer for the movie used Two Steps From Hell's "1000 Ships Of The Underworld" as background music.
Jump Scare: The infamous "Don't Scream" scene at the end of almost every single commercial.
Rooting for the Empire: the priests are rather bland and poorly-developed action heroes, on the other hand Black Hat is a badass and wonderfully hammy Magnificent Bastard, rooting for him is quite easy.
Shout-Out: the vampires are nocturnal, gaunt, eyeless, wall-crawling feral beasts that build enormous hives, infect humans and have a queen...totally not a xenomorph knockoff.
What Could Have Been: Sure, kung-fu priests fighting vampires is pretty cool in its own right, but wouldn't you want to see an undead Nay Theist priest trekking across the Weird West, hunting fallen angels, like in the original Manhwa?
