It was 30 years ago when the Vatican published a list of 45 films officially recommended by Pope John Paul II.

The movies chosen by the Pontifical Council for Social Communications were split into three categories of religion, values and art.

Among the movies chosen are classics like Orson Welles’ Citizen Kane, Steven Spielberg’s Schindler’s List and a John Wayne Western.

Yet it might surprise movie fans and Roman Catholics that one horror film made this.

In fact, it was only just remade to critical acclaim last year and featured in the Art category.
