Max L Fun movie, decent detective noir with a magical twist. Yeah it's a little dated but the story holds up. The acting overall is solid. Fred Ward was made for roles like this. If Hollywood was looking for something to reboot, this would be a great candidate. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/18/25 Full Review Horror fan 4 This was a lot of fun. I loved the story and it's characters. Although the monsters looked a little rough it still didn't take away the charming quality of the film. Tim Treakle Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/15/25 Full Review D G So bad I couldn’t get through it, and I appreciate a good bad film. This one was unwatchable. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/10/24 Full Review Audience Member It aired on tv over 30 years ago but was largely forgotten Starring Fred Ward, David Warner, Julianne Moore, Clancy Brown I'm amazed they mix 1940s mystery-noir with supernatural creatures You don't see genres like that together very often I like that it gives it some variety having gremlins, witches, vampires, werewolves blend with gangster style filmmaking It got glowing reviews in the press and even won an Emmy for its musical numbers Yet it does seem silly to modern viewers not to mention being a tad insensitive of being homophobic and transphobic when it came out But the world building is fascinating, lots of bloody violence, I like the 1940ss setting, and the cool creature effects I liked watching it still Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Carried by Fred Ward but ably supported by Julianne Moore and Clancy Brown, this is a daft but atmospheric and enjoyable 40's noir fantasy where magic is an everyday thing. The ending is entirely predictable but overall it's more than deserving of cult status. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member intresting - it's not a great film by any means, but it's kind of fun. I'm not sure if it was funny on purpose or on accident, but the creatures are quite funny. it's to a bad watch if you don't have anything better to do.
