Lack of good storyline.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Warlock was one good movies of late 80" when l saw it for first time on TV,since then l try find this picture without success,until in 2015 when this was reissued by a bad dealer here in Brazil,probably the source came from VHS,but somehow l found this picture much better on first time,now revisiting it is dated...the casting weren't good enough,moreover Julian Sands wasn't a proper star,though a fine actor,the plot is fantastic heped by some nice special effects for those time,Lori Singer and Richard E Grant didn't disappoint nobody....imaginative,funny and scary!!Resume: First watch: 1992 / How many: 2 / Source: TV-DVD / Rating: 7

How mechanically do you burn someone over a basket of live kittens? The best part of old English is the frequency they use "inclined"."Never was there a brute more deserving" is still a killer delivery.Terminator-esque... love the shattering neon sign and escaping noble gas.Lori Singer wearing the killer 80s outfits.Diabetic foreshadowing.His film really moves along.I love how the Warlock plops himself down and silently observes in a creepy yet disarming way.Lovely segue.The best part of witchcraft must be the literal-ness. No wasting time with riddles.Nice Witch compass dialog :) He sure spilled a lot of precious blood.After 2 incidents the cops don't stay around until she is gone?! He curses her just for fun. What a d@$% but a nice rhythm.Lovely driving lesson.The 12 Apostrophes! Nah. I don't need help :) "Men like us!" "You thither... Such as they are"... love the dialog. Extremely efficient.Barefoot Kenny Rodgers?! Who walks around a plane in bare feet?! He deserves to be cursed for that."Lest you favor throttlings to the ears and face..." ... still a tremendous line.That's a viable interest.Of course he cheated.Dog? Nice idea.Still greatly rewatchable.

I will say without apology that most 80's movies that are period, fantasy, horror, sci-fi, or anything similar are pure garbage. This film is anything but! Let's break it down by details:First, the acting. I won't say it was remarkable, but it certainly was above par for the time and subject matter. Julian Sands is always good as a villain, and Richard Grant always does a good job. Lori Singer was a bit weak at times, but not enough to really detract from the movie-- also quite nice to look at, and the lack of a weak romance storyline was kind of refreshing.Next, the effects. The 80's did produce movies with better effects than this one, but they certainly weren't bad--especially for the period. I've seen things made in the new millennium that are worse.Finally, the plot. I won't say it's scary, but the plot was certainly compelling. There were a few interesting twists here and there (especially Renferne's end), and the overall flow was well-paced and anything but dull. If you believe in magic or in God and Satan, then the kick will be even stronger.So, you definitely want to see this at least once. It's a solid 7.5-8. Not going to win any awards, but still quite good. Praise be to God that there actually is an 80's supernatural thriller worth watching!

This is one of the better (but somewhat old now) adventure movies with a good sense of thrills that I have seen.The story of "Warlock" is interesting and captivating. And the movie will grab hold of you right from the beginning and not let go before the very end.The characters in the movie are good and enjoyable, each of the three lead roles were well played. Julian Sands with his devilish charms was superb for the role of the warlock, and Richard E. Grant equally well in the role of Redfern. Lori Singer, well she was alright as well.Of course the effects of the movie are not so good by todays standards, but back then they were great. And the movie doesn't suffer from the effects, even when watched today.This is actually the movie that made me notice the acting skills of Julian Sands and I have been a fan ever since."Warlock" is a definite MUST watch for anyone whom enjoy an adventure movie with magics and good thrills. The story is well written and works well on the screen. The movie is one of those that have "repeated-watch" value, you can see it over and over, because it never gets old or boring.
