UGH well I probably should have watched this before I read the book. I had to do a large research paper and compare the two... There are so many issues with this movie. Based on a true story my ass...yeah
This beeing my first review, I had to pick a really outstanding movie.
It was 1988 when the movie came out. I believe the mistery and tension envolving the viewer all the time were pretty good.
The best movie about voodoo ive ever seen, no doubt.
a great Wes Craven film, one of his most underated and lesser known films, I dislike the usual dvd cover art to this film because they try to market it as a straight up horror film but it's really not that at all. there are elements, sure, but he took a more intellegent take on the voodoo/black magic film. highly recommended.
A very under rated film by Wes Craven and one of his best. The story of a man's search for a mythical zombie powder in Haiti which bring the dead back to life is a very intruiging one since it is based on a non fiction book by the real Wade Davies. A very good cast headlined by Bill Pullman do a great job bringing this tale of voodoo and black magic to life but this also has great scenes of voodoo induced hallucinations and horror which make you realise your still watching a Wes Craven film. Fans of the director should seek this out if you haven't seen it already.
The only good movie out there about voodoo and such. This was a very good film. If you havent heard o it check it out. Its one of those hidden gems that you need to see.
This movie is pretty good. It really does carry alot of the same type of feel of movies of this time dealing with voodoo or witchcraft or some sort of religion gone bad. The movie has pretty decent acting and a really good story. The idea is scary in itself and the movie while not as scary as the idea is really entertaining and keeps you in it. I recommend this to anyone who likes evil religion type movies.
THE HORROR HYPE METER Excited to see this movie? Rate it here!
