Review of The Name of the Rose (1986) by Dwayne R — 11 Jun 2013
I wanted to like this more than I actually did. Several Sherlock Holmes allusions, such as "Elementary" and Baskerville. At one point, I also felt as if in a Harry Potter film. IMO, "The Church"/"The Holy Inquisition" was comical and didn't receive its just reward, nor did I believe that the monastery was truly fearful of demonic influence.
