646f9e108c An unspeakable evil has come into our dimension and wants to rule over Earth, and only a mysterious sorceror known as Doctor Mordrid can stop him. I loved this movie for two reasons: 1) Jeff Combs is absolutely wonderful in it. Plays the role of the modern wizard to the hilt. (And is absolutely adorable.) 2) The movie helped to inspire a role-playing game I thoroughly enjoy, Mage: The Awakening. I've shown it at various LARP after-parties, and it's always a big hit.<br/><br/>D&D love and Jeff-squeeing aside, it's not exactly a masterpiece, but it's well-done and thoroughly enjoyable. The plot is fast-moving and engaging in its simplicity, the special effects are pretty good for such a low budget, and the script, while nothing stellar, was not too badly done, and cheesy in all the right places. A good way to spend an evening. One of the laziest Full Moon movies considering the obvious budget involved. There's almost zero action, stale dialogue throughout and every single scene drags twice as long as it should. Its shot well and the cast aren't slouches, but there is no story. Nothing happens. Its filler until an abrupt and anticlimactic finale that rips off your money. Typical for Charles Band. Avoid this one.
