Review of The Dark Power (1985) by Jake C — 28 Jul 2012
You get 48 minutes of talk (and occasional T&A) and then FINALLY see the monsters. The pacing is horrendous, but I did enjoy the last 30 minutes as it reminded me of movies like Killer Klowns from Outer Space and The Toxic Avenger.
So it's sort of like Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things (another movie that takes forever to get going). I can't hate on the movie too much for as cheaply made as it is. I do love this kind of stuff, but the first 50 minutes are so incredibly difficult to sit through.
It does deliver some gore, T&A, and some whip-lashing fun, so it tries, but those first 48 minutes are unforgivable.
