Death Magic

I remember reading a review (and seeing a nice still of a head split in half by a sword) of this in Film Threat Video Guide back in the early 90s. Unfortunately, that means I had to be a dumbass and eventually watch it. A group of black magicians resurrect Major Parker, a Confederate soldier who was hung for killing a few innocents back in the day. Just before his execution, Parker put a curse on all who condemned him and, wouldn't you know it, he uses his new found metaphysical existence to get his revenge. This was made by a group called The Domino Theatre out of Arizona. With that name, one would expect someone who could act but this is some of the worst acting I have ever seen. To the film's credit, the plot is somewhat ambitious even if the end result is not. There is also some nudity and gore (including the aforementioned head splitting, which is shown too quick). Doing a search online, the only listing for The Domino Theatre I find are in Canada. Perhaps this film got them deported?

This movie is like a salad with a mix of different elements. There is Civil War parts and Magic with a hint of Horror. The movie is very well detailed and has lots of women and violence. Worries are abound from the characters. The actors are top drawer for a small movie like this you believe they are who they are acting. Rent this for something different from the regular movie.
