Davinci Code - all the Catholics getting excited drove people to watch it, and get it hyped in the media - and what a disappointment that was

Religion has always been a part of the movies.
King of Kings-1927 silent film
The Song of Bernadette-1943
Joan of Arc-1928 silent remade in 1948
The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima-1952
The Robe-1953
The Ten Commandments-1959 to name a few.
Even horror movies like The Omen and The Excorcist and based on religious beliefs

anything "contersial" gets a lot of hype, therefore sells go up
