The Last Temptation of Christ was my first experience with the right-wing/religious uproar about a movie was as a teen still keeping peace with the parental units by attending mom's church. At the time, I really had no interest in seeing the movie, but not because the preacher man said not to. Just wasn't my thing. However, it was very eye opening on the weaponization of the pulpit and only accelerated my move away from church.
