Reviews
Majorthebys Charming and brutal
Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
anitguy Jake (Sean Patrick Flanery), a half-breed demon hunter, struggling with the side he has chosen with the war between heaven and hell. Finds himself facing off against an 'unbound' fallen angel, played by Billy Drago, who seeks to spread his "demon seed" upon the Earth.After watching this movie, I cannot see why others are comparing it to Constantine. Doing so would be like comparing Vampire Hunter D and Van Helsing, they have similar roots but take things from different perspectives.I took this movie at face value and went from there; it is a low budget film with cheesy effects, some gaping holes in the plot, and almost funny fight scenes. But when you look at how many other movies out there have similar story lines, you can see why it would be so hard to stand out in this genre.All in all, it's not a bad "rainy day" type flick; ranks up there with a series pilot that never took off...or like someone posted before, a B-level movie.
JimBeam49 As a movie consumer particularly inclined to this genre and encouraged due to the positive reviews I've read here on the IMDb, I watched this movie and now offer my analysis. I don't entirely disagree with some of the glowing reviews, however it felt like a well produced T.V. pilot rather than a true theatrical release.It was well produced, but it never reached the "theatrical release" quality that I was lead to believe. I'll spell out the particulars...1. The pace seems like it was intentioned to where things stopped for no other reason than it would be a great place to put a commercial break.2. The costumes and "special" makeup, In my opinion seemed easy to recreate as though for a weekly show.Examples: The main bad hotty: stick-on horns and vampire fangs, little leather outfit.The main bad guy: vampire fangs, leather jacket.The main good guy: glowing eyes, occasionally.The main good hotty: nothing until SHE turned bad, then two finger demon hands and ugly face like the vampires on "Buffy".It's not going to win any awards, although it's better than many of the so called theatrical releases I've seen lately. I wish they had made this into a weekly series. I'd have tuned in!
hoppz This is a low budget movie and the lack of locations etc... does show that, however it was a lot better than i expected and i'm happy about that because I like Shaun Patrick Flannery.The dialogue at points in the movie was a little hammy and the director used the same stock shot several times (although this may have been to save money) but in general the story line was pretty good and the acting was OK.This may not be for everyone and draws a lot of comparisons with Constantine (which i also enjoyed) so if you liked that you may like this.I suppose my final comments would be that its a very average movie but it did entertain me for an hour and a half and for a movie based on a video game it was a lot better than any other i have seen lately especially any Uwe Boll movie.
Homer Simpson Tries to be original and moves along at a brisk pace so you won't be bored. Amongst pretty good performances by the entire cast, Billy Drago is convincingly sleazy as the head demon. There's plenty of T&A and a decent amount of violence. This film is hardly challenging, but what did you expect from a movie named "Demon Hunter"? The production values are way above your average low-budget crap horror movie and there was an attempt to craft an interesting plot. What can I say, I liked it! I wish there was a sequel.Definitely worth an afternoon diversion. Give it a try!
