The once omnipotent star who commanded the big screen in films like The Thin Red Line, Pay It Forward, and The Count of Monte Cristo has been since banished back to television.
Mel Gibson's 2004 blockbuster hit The Passion of the Christ, that took in more than $611 million dollars, was supposed to be the rebirth of a once-promising career of Jim Caviezel, who played Jesus Christ in this 2 hour and 6 minute epic Hollywood-style snuff film.
"He told me this film would make me rich, and famous, and that I would be able to get cutsies in every line," said a disillusioned Caviezel who now calls an apple box his home on the set of some shitty TV show. He looked as worn-down and tattered as he did during the shooting of the film that crucified his career.
"Hollywood has taught me 2 things; Number one... not only can the Jews kill your career in this town, so can Mel. I don't know why they (Hollywood) are mad at me anyway. Mel called the shots. Plus, I'm not even Jewish. Besides that, take a look at that film. The Romans did it, exclaimed Caviezel."
"Nobody had the passion for it like Mel did. Late at night, after a day of intense shooting, Mel could be seen walking around the fake town of Nazareth in the thorny crown that he swiped from Jim's trailer. During the day, Mel would join in with the others, actually grabbing one of the whips. He really beat the shit out Mr. Caviezel," said Brian Hopkins, a production assistant on the set, who was witness to the gang style onslaught brought upon Caviezel's character. In one scene that was edited out, Mel was caught wearing a shirt that read Don't Mess With The Siah!

There was one incident during a dreidel contest where Mr. Caviezel tried to assert his mystical powers over Mel's wife, Robyn. He started to get her drunk on water that he turned into wine and then proceeded to convince her that he would like show her how he can part the Red Sea. Jim was simply speaking of performing a miracle. Robyn thought that he knew that she was menstruating and was trying to get into her pants. The misunderstanding spread quickly throughout the set as well as the rest of Tinseltown. Mel was enraged and vowed to put a nail in the career of Caviezel much like he was nailed to the cross.
