Review of The Relic (1997) by Sarfaraz A — 27 May 2012
Based on the novel 'Relic' by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child; Peter Hyams's The Relic, stands astonishing sci-fi horror/disaster film. Although film builds up anxiety and horror gradually, it is in-fact not up until 40mints have actually passed, when you realize that you have been experiencing amazing horror film. Some of best films of 1997 should have eclipsed its existence, nonetheless it still stands 'somewhat spectacular movie' from said year.
Stan Winston the visual effects supervisor, who had worked alongside with James Cameron on Aliens, provided exhilarating effects for creatures. I usually dislike sweet characters being killed off, but when it is the case like 'The Relic' I could pretty much handle this.
