Warlock Notations et commentaires
- engelundso6 février 2026Still epic!
- Richard3 août 2025In 1691 Boston, a warlock is sentenced to death but escapes into the future, our present with dark magic. He’s on a quest to find the three pieces of the Devil’s Bible, which contains the true name of God. If he succeeds, he can un-create the world. Hot on his heels, a relentless witch hunter and a woman whose life he destroyed. 🧨 What Works Julian Sands Is Magnetic: His performance as the Warlock is eerie, elegant, and oddly charismatic. Richard E. Grant Steals Scenes: As the witch hunter, he brings intensity and a touch of humor. Time Travel With a Gothic Twist: The blend of colonial witchcraft and modern-day settings is surprisingly effective. Atmospheric Score and Visuals: It’s got that late-80s horror vibe—moody lighting, synthy music, and practical effects. 😬 What Doesn’t The Sequels Are Forgettable: Stick with the original. Later entries lose the charm. Some Effects Feel Dated: It’s 1989, so expect a few cheesy moments. Pacing Can Lag: The middle act drags a bit before ramping up again. ⭐ Final Thoughts Warlock is a cult classic that blends horror, fantasy, and time travel with flair. It’s not perfect, but it’s stylish, spooky, and anchored by strong performances. If you’re into supernatural thrillers with a vintage edge, this one’s worth conjuring up.
- Spencer MB10 octobre 2025This has my favorite version of a magic system: weird ass, logic-bending rules (I loved the weird logic of driving nails into the dirt-prints of the warlock). This perfectly captures what a real warlock would do with all that power, reality bends to the them. Then also the potions and spells require some crazy things (the flying potion being absolutely diabolically unhinged). TBH I’m really bad at explaining all of this. The effects were also pretty decent for the budget. The remaster I watched looked good, I don’t know if they cleaned up the FX at all but the 2D energy beams he cast looked good and some of the more iffy greenscreen moments seemed corrected.
