Review of Angel Heart (1987) by Adam M — 04 Mar 2009

Decent thriller/horror with Mickey Rourke as a private investigator persuaded to take on a possibly dangerous case involving a missing person. Despite being a bit creeped out by the man offering him the job, Robert De Niro in a brief but effective,and later very important, appearance, he takes the job, but things turn nasty and our PI gets alot more than he bargained for.

This is an interesting film, with elements of classic detective story, thriller and horror all mixed in to create quite a compelling and powerful film.
