Dominion: Prequel to the Exorcist *** (2005, Stellan Skarsgård, Gabriel Mann) – Classic Movie Review 2525
Director Paul Schrader’s alternative and original prequel to The Exorcist (1973), written by William Wisher and Caleb Carr, forms the satisfactory fifth entry in The Exorcist series. It is the reasonably happy ending to an extraordinary, unhappy story. […]
Exorcist: The Beginning *** (2004, Stellan Skarsgård, Izabella Scorupco, James D’Arcy, Ben Cross, Ralph Brown, Alan Ford) – Classic Movie Review 2522
Director Renny Harlin’s 2004 chiller is the surprise belated prequel to the 1973 chiller classic, The Exorcist, no doubt prompted by the success of the cinema release of The Exorcist: The Director’s Cut in 2000. […]

Dogville **** (2003, Nicole Kidman, Paul Bettany) – Classic Movie Review 1496
Director Lars von Trier’s challenging, not to say intimidating, 2003 epic is a minimalist parable playing out on a stage-like set. It stars Nicole Kidman, who gives a tour de force in one of her […]
Deep Blue Sea *** (1999, Saffron Burrows, Thomas Jane, Samuel L Jackson, Stellan Skarsgård) – Classic Movie Review 1456
Director Renny Harlin’s 1999 horror film Deep Blue Sea isn’t exactly a high-quality monster movie but it is thoroughly enjoyable none the less. Main star Saffron Burrows looks fit as the anti-heroine Dr Susan McAlester, […]
