That was an excellent one.

A different way of telling a story

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

usually i do not bother to write reviews but i am writing this since its is astonishing that this movie has such a low rating. it definitely deserves at least a 7 on an average. PLEASE Don't GO FOR THE LOW RAITNGS. IT IS A MUCH MUCH BETTER MOVIE! i cant call it is the best movie i have ever seen but these low ratings are terribly misleading. i wonder how come this movie has such a low rating! it is a well made movie and if you like horror movies u are likely to enjoy it. i am damn sure that it deserves a better rating.it is not boring for even a moment.the story goes so fast and sustains your curiosity every scene. give it a try, and the low ratings are misleading.its not as bad as you might think. it is a very enjoyable movie. it appears to be a very different type of story.it does not have the pomp of a big budget movie. day before yesterday i watched it in wb movies and unfortunately missed the last 3 mins or so. waiting for a re telecast so that i can catch it.

With Clive Barker involved you knew that something usual was going to happen and by golly it did. Two female Succubi are released by a monk, Tomas Alcala. Tomas was told not to open a pandora's box but did not heed the advice. These two Succubi are drinkers from hell, alcohol no, human syrup, yes. Sticky fingers and sticky mucus make this feature very different from most Succubi flicks. Tomas is no saint, or is he? Only a person "pure of heart" or is that from another movie, can use a sacred dagger to rid the world of these devil twins. Special effects are wonderful and very graphic. You if love to see the universal battle between "good & evil" then this is the flick for you.

If you like Clive Barker film adaptations you will probably like this. This is a good and bad thing of course as Barker films tend to be uneven. On the plus side is decent acting and some genuinely spooky scenes especially in the first half. The two sucubi are especially interesting at first with quirky mannerisms and they do give an impression of supernatural beings in human form. The effects are generally good but do get a little cheesy in parts (the latex look). The protagonists also tend to become less interesting as the film goes on. Thats the main problem I have with this movie in that it just goes on too long. I really enjoyed the first hour but steadily lost interest as the story ran out of ideas and became pretty predictable. All in all though it was enjoyable enough and does show more imagination than a lot of what passes for horror these days. If you liked this I would recommend "Hellraiser" also by Clive and "The Prophecy" with Christopher Walken.

What a disappointment! A weak, illogical plot loaded with cliches. There is so much psycho-sexual territory to be mined in exploring the mythology of Incubi, but this stinker does nothing more than throw in the towel. Clive Barker has done some good original stuff, but not here, not now.
