Review of Warlock

Warlock (1989)
7/10
A fun way to spend a couple of hours
20 July 2007
This is a rental jewel if you can still find it on the shelf. There isn't much substance but it is fun, a bit gory, suspenseful, and adventurous. There are pretty well defined characters, and a decent plot that moves forward through the film.

Julian Sands is great as the calm, cold, and collect warlock, and Richard E. Grant is great as the animated and out of place witch hunter. Lori Singer is quite annoying as the hunter's sidekick, and 20th century guide. But overall there is a good balance of characters and interaction.

I bet this film would have been fantastic if the budget had been bigger, especially for the FX. But it does well with a good script and decent editing.
