Review in a Nutshell: Triple-wolves, zombie monks, Ron Perlman head-butting everything in sight, and Nicolas Cage’s primordial hair piece…what’s not to like about this ridiculous supernatural “thriller”?
Sweet. This is the best of Nicolas Cage. Love this movie.
When i heard the synopsis for this movie, i assumed it would be them transporting a girl that may or may not really be a witch, that would be the mystery. Is she a witch.
So when they throw out in the opening that yes, there are witches, i got interested, because then i had to think, okay, where are they going with this, since it won’t just be a false accusation.
Definitely enjoyed the movie more than I thought I would.
You’ve made me want to watch “In the Name of the Rose” again.
Ron Perlman is a greatly under-appreciated actor. He’s one of those actors (like Treat Williams) who never seems to get the big roles, but when I see their name on a film I know they’re going to steal the show.
Watch the made-for-Syfy movie Primal Force for another example of Perlman making true crap enjoyable.
You might enjoy _Black Death_ starring Sean Bean.
