Based on the erotic horror comic strip by David Quinn and Tim Vigil, Re-Animator producer/director Brian Yuzna's shocker is an appallingly bad devil-in-disguise version of The Crow. Shattered after the murder of his girlfriend by a criminally demonic sect called The Hand, John Jaspers (Mark Frost) signs away his soul to the Devil in return for vengeance on her killers. But the satanic pact also means he's transformed into a sick superhero, armed with long metal claws, who must play a vital part in a prophesied black magic ritual. Nothing works in Yuzna's crudely assembled dud, unless you're a fan of a hopelessly amateur jumble of comic bubble clichés, terrible special effects and blaring heavy metal music.
I thought this film was great! The storyline is good and there is plenty of gore. The film is about a guy who sells his soul to get vengeance on the people who murdered his girlfriend and ends up being used as a tool of murder for a satanic cult leader. It starts of quite seriously and turns into a fun comic book style gory, violent and fun 30 mins to the end. It is similar to SPAWN but check out THE CROW for a more serious and moody take on a similar type of story.
i know the movie industry lacks ideas from time to time but this is more like the crow meets freddy kruger......both new ideas of the time with a string of sequels,, but this is no where near ,,bad make up corny lines and horror scenes that make you laugh at the sheer poor quality do not rent this film ,,surely someone must check titles before they are released should not be on the shelf utter crap
