Rarely do I review movies but in this case I felt compelled to warn others. The movie began promisingly enough but rapidly lost itself in a convoluted plot that built up to an anti-climax. The premise for the movie could have been used to much greater effect, I felt like about 3/4 the way into the movie it became very rushed and the climax (if you could call it that) left me disappointed. The special effects, while not great, were interesting and the costumes were quite stunning. The acting was a bit corny but I did like the leading character until the very end when the whole movie dropped itself into the toilet. Stay away at all costs!

Horrible dross

Warning: Spoilers
Awful. I actually got sick to my stomach trying to watch this film. I've been registered for a long time on IMDb.com and I've watched a lot of movies in that time, this is the first time that I've felt compelled to leave a review. This is more of a warning than a review. Run! Run away from the nasty piece of trash that can only mockingly be called art. Run! I found this film searching via Google because I'm a fan of classic silent horror films such as "Nosferatu" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0013442/), "The Phantom of the Opera" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0016220/), and the "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0010323/). If you are a fan of horror films or if you are a fan of silent films, do not believe any good reviews of this film you may have seen. This is NOT a good film. RUN! Beware!
