It's films this bad that make me wonder how people can prefer John Carpenter over Rob Zombie when it comes to horror. Yes, Carpenter had made a couple of classics, but nothing Zombie has made comes even close to the directing disasters of Prince of Darkness or The Ward. Is it one of those "so bad it's good" deals? Because everything about this movie -- the directing, the script, the acting, everything -- screams amateur.

One of my favorite older horror movies. It's a little "over the top" but that's John Carpenter's style. The best part about this is the unusual take on the original of good/evil.

Then it really is Old Scratch knocking at the door.

Something of the forgotten John Carpenter movie, Prince of Darkness shows both the good and bad side of the supremely talented director.

The story is a beaut, a bit skew-whiff, but unmistakably Carpenter territory as Satan exists in some sort More
