Some movie about the standard satanic plot (satan looking for a girl to bear the antichrist). I think it was End of Days, but I don't remember anymore. Those movies are so replaceable...
(Not that End of Days didn't have enough problems with the new Millennium starting at Jan 1, 2000, 00:00EST) #-o

Anyways, so that movie showed a scene of a beautiful comet with a huge tail right over the full moon, supposedly predicted in some old scroll and called "Eye of the devil".

If I understood correctly, a comet's tail always points away from the sun, right? So the sun would have to be left of the comet to let it cast its tail as "eyebrow" over the moon. But not a full moon then, obviously. #-o

Yes, a comets' tail always points away from the sun due to the solar wind which pushes the lost cometary material away from the comet in the direction away from the sun.

I would think that if the comet were a little off from the full Moon, the tail would be off at an angle, too. But it would be severely foreshortened, wouldn't cover much of the sky, and would be pointing toward the full Moon.

[hijack]That reminds me of a Supergirl comic where there was supposed to be a conjunction of the moon and a couple planets that would give this evil sorceress massive powers. Supergirl moved the moon off course so the conjunction wouldn't happen then moved it back to it's rightful place.
Smart thinking there.[/hijack]

Wow! If a girl strong enough to move the moon could not take out this sorceress, she must have been pretty tough.
