Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

kosmasp In case you haven't noticed (or read up on it, as some other reviewers statements indicate), this is the second and last part of the Valdemar Legacy movie. While the first movie struggled to maintain a level of tension and mystery (and finally succumbing to that), it was still pretty enjoyable.Even if you haven't seen it, at the beginning of this, you'll get a recap of what happened until "now". Which makes you think if it was necessary to have a first movie in the first place. But if you are going to miss out on one of the movie, it should be the second part. They better make a recap of that for a feature DVD release or something like that. The movie tries and sets goals, but unfortunately it never achieves anything substantial.

artrambler-ru_96 How many people now know the name of Howard Lovecraft? I do not think he is known, but known in narrow circles, and it's sad. Adaptations of his books in high demand do not enjoy, and to finance them no one wants because they are unlikely to pay off at the box office, and that's why one out trash, or Class "B" in his works. Adaptations of the good I can distinguish except short film "The Call of Cthulhu" and film "Muse Pickman", not Hollywood movies, art-house, at least, not class "B".Films series "Legacy of Valdemar" is not taken not by what the story Lovecraft, but, nevertheless, from the great maestro in this movie very much.Few talk about the first film, but rather on its merits have many screen adaptations of Lovecraft. In this film was not an original storyline, do not argue. But in this film was a tremendous atmosphere of Lovecraft books. The gloomy house, nice clothes, a monster of the other world, Gothic surroundings, this is what made the first film amazing. There's even a Lovecraft himself was lit, a great actor picked up on his role. There's even Bram Stoker managed, briefly, in the frame to appear.Still, after watching the first part had some not realizing until the end of the story is not told, it was clear that we are waiting for a sequel. And continuing happened, however, atmospheric.At this time, there are a lot of Lovecraft. Here and "Nekronamikon," and the cult of "Dagon" and Cthulhu, Azathoth even had time to appear. I want to say that the film is very pleasant to fans of Lovecraft, I at least think so. For this is the most worthy, what happened in recent years based on the books of the great master.

epimytheas I must say that I very much enjoyed the first part of La Herencia Valdemar. All the ingredients for a great film were there. A blend of Cthulhu Mythos, Aleister Crowley and Victorian scenery, all those together mixed very well and the outcome was inspiring and thrilling. Directing was brilliant, photography perfect, even the special effects were at least decent. I admit it. I loved it. And I was expecting the second part to be at least equal to the first. How wrong was I. After the first 5 minutes I lost track of what was going on in the film. The story line became blur and childish. As much as I loved the first part, this is a total screw up. There was absolutely no reason at all to make a second part. Its like painting a wonderful portrait and after u finish it, u spread a bucket of paint all over it and destroy it. And thats exactly what happened here... 3/10 for Cthulhu...

mario_c I didn't watch the first movie, LA HERENCIA VALDEMAR, but even so I decided give it a try on the purpose it was based on H.P. Lovecraft mythology about the ancient monsters that ruled the Earth before mankind.In fact this movie refers Lovecraft, to the point of the writer himself take part in it! AH AH! It's just an actor of course but it's funny the director put a character of H.P. Lovecraft in the movie.It could have been a bit better with more suspense and more H.P.'s monsters (nice characterization of Cthulhu though) but I guess it's not that bad to a movie of this genre.I score it 6/10
