intrigue premise completely waste somehow by carpenter and crew . sorry guy and i generally love carpenter flick and but this one be horrid garbage . nearly every possible suspenseful sequence be butcher . not much to say outside of the synopsis and but imagine carpenter at his bad and and it only begin to describe the debacle that be prince of darkness . i spent week search my local video store with a friend to find a copy and only to be more disappointed than i have by any of his other film . i love the thing and they live and . heck and even have a soft spot for his village of the damned flick . but this . well and thank god for victor wong tho . 4/10 .
