3.0 out of 5 stars One of those odd entries into cinematic history, September 2, 1999
By A Customer
This is a difficult movie to rate because it's so odd it needs to be seen no matter what someone might think of its quality. It is one of only two films directed by Canadian Julian Roffman. I got a chance to see this when it was originally released in the theatres. The studio used some of the 3-D "dream" sequences in the TV campaign and to a little shonicker like myself who was only 9 at the time, this looked like the greatest movie in the world. When I did in fact see it I thought this was right up there with the best of them. Well...upon viewing it as an adult on video, it wasn't quite that good, but it's a wiild flick to behold nonetheless. The 3-D sequences are outrageous. Viewers are treated to the likes of the hero rowing down the river Styx in a coffin while a skeleton-faced demon spits fireballs at him. Of course those fireballs are coming right at you and it's really nifty. These sequences looked as though though they were designed by Salvador Dali. And to a kid who couldn't tell a Roger Corman budget from a Cecil B. DeMille budget, this was the bee's knees. Of course the bones show when you get older and this film could have used at least a few more dollars. The non-dream sequences are a little dumb and slow, and the "don't do drugs or this is what will happen to you" subtext is a bit dated, but this is a definite must see for anyone who can appreciate the sheer energy and imagination involved. One could easily call this "gorilla film making." Also, the opening scene, where viewers witness the murder of a young woman, the camera is P.O.V. and it is truly frightening. So much so, that the rest of the movie can't quite sustain that level of intensity. Do yourself a favor and buy this movie. It's a cheap date and it even comes with 5 pair of 3-D glasses. It makes a great party experience. Thanks to those whacky folks at Rhino Video for digging up this little gem.

5.0 out of 5 stars Are you Kidding?, October 28, 2004
By Flowergirl69 (Ogden Utah) - See all my reviews
I saw this movie as a child at the theatre. I was scared ****less!! Now, having children and grandchildren of my own, I enjoy watching those things that impressed me so much as a child. Now that there is EBAY and VCR's, I bought a copy of The Mask. It even had a pair of 3-D glasses inside. I like to watch this show when I'm home alone.

By debubba (memphis, tn.) - See all my reviews
when i was a pre-teen i watched this movie at my local theater. i remember having the s--- scared out of me by this movie. having watched it recently it's not quite as scary but is still a very good movie. i hope the 3d effect was better at the theater because they are pathetic on tv.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well Done
A good movie if you like this sort of entertainment. I liken it to Eraserhead and the Magus. A 90s remake would be awesome.
