Product description

Product Description

Master of horror John Carpenter (Halloween, The Thing) directs this terrifying battle between mankind and the ultimate evil. A group of graduate students and scientists uncover an ancient canister in an abandoned church, but when they open it, they inadvertently unleash a strange liquid and an evil force on all of humanity. As the liquid turns their co-workers into zombies, the remaining members realize they have released the most unspeakable horror of them all. Terror mounts as the team must fight to save the world from a devilish fury that has been contained for over seven million years.?

    Spoiler: 100% worth it to watch Alice Cooper shank a guy with a bicycle. This flick is actually scary, has reasonably decent effects and will have you tense throughout wondering exactly what is liquid Satan? Definitely worth the price of admission to add to your collection.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Typical John Carpenter movie but with a twist.
    Reviewed in Canada on July 23, 2022

    I've been a fan of John Carpenter's movies for quite some time. I've never seen this movie but it was well worth what I paid for in the long run. Donald Pleasence plays the priest in this movie with a bunch of university students trying to figure out what on Earth that green thing and a huge canister is doing to begin with. The funny thing is nobody has a name for that thing in the church. There have been theories thrown around but nobody knows for sure. The effects are quite good and the plot is recyclable yet okay to watch. There are many Carpenter movies a little bit better than this one. This is a movie which has elements of other Carpenter movies in the past. Be warned: it can be creepy at times and there's a wonderful jumpscare near the end of the movie that is yet to be experienced.

    This film is vintage Carpenter & has everything you'd expect from this truly great director. Yet I am writing to tell you of this great SHOUT! factory edition. Clean, pristine transfer & remastered 5.1 soundtrack revive the film to its original glory. SHOUT! does for this Carpenter film what the Criterion Collection does for other masterpieces adding unique extras that this film deserves. I will be buying all the SHOUT! films in the Carpenter Collectors Edition, they're worth the modest premium asked.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Carpenter's worst movie...
    Reviewed in Canada on March 23, 2015
    An absolute turd. I had to stop watching after 45 agonizing minutes. I just couldn't get through it. Clearly, Carpenter was experimenting with this movie, and it failed. Creative? Yes. Original? Sure. But, oh so boring.

    Carpenter will no doubt be upset at seeing this movie being brought back to life by Scream Factory.

    If you like the movie, the Blu-ray transfer is great, as Scream Factory releases always are.

    Regista, compositore, maestro del cinema, ¨¨ stato definito in molti modi nel corso della sua lunga carriera. Di sicuro John Carpenter, nell'arco di 20 anni, ha contribuito a rifondare temi e stilemi del cinema horror e non, regalandoci cult, opere seminali e veri e propri capolavori come quelli ripubblicati in queste edizioni blu-ray doppio disco a dir poco straordinarie. Qualit¨¤ video e audio al top e contenuti extra a go go! Manca il doppiaggio in italiano ma in questo caso ne faccio volentieri a meno.. Straconsigliato a tutti i veri fan!

    5.0 out of 5 stars One of Carpenter's best films.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 9, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    Coming in between "The Thing" and "In the Mouth of Madness" as John Carpenter's Apocalypse Trilogy, Prince of Darkness represents Carpenter's most thoughtful horror film, with creepy and interesting ideas to spare, shocking philosophically and viscerally in equal doses. The plot has it's own joys and if you're avoiding it because you dislike religious-based horror or expect an Exorcist knock-off, you have got it all wrong. This is science-fiction/religious horror and it bears little resemblance to the Judeo-Christian myth. Enough about that - you must see it.

    This Scream Factory disc includes amazing picture and sound (this score begged for 5.1 surround sound), the same John Carpenter/Peter Jason commentary (fairly average for Carpenter's tracks, which means it's a solid 3/5) that's on the UK Studio Canal DVD (missing the opening remark about the "Studio Canal Plus logo" which is irrelevant as said logo is replaced by the original Universal logo here), a good solid interview with Mr Carpenter, another with a effects guy who also acted in the film, another with Alice Cooper (who acts here and recorded a song for it, briefly heard in the film), one with Alan Howarth (who collaberated on most of John Carpenter's scores between Halloween II/The Fog to They Live), the trailer and radio spots, the alternate opening sequenced edited for American TV which hilariously speeds up the footage to fit it between commercial breaks and attempts to tone down severely anything that might be construed as anti-religious. There's also the customary "Horror's Hallowed Grounds", which is funnier than usual (I still kind of find the host annoying, but these are really fun features) and an easter egg from the 25th anniversary screening of the film which features some of Carp's funniest answers to questions.

    This is THE version of the film to own. I find it VERY unlikely it will be topped by anyone for years and years to come.
