A thrilling global quest where skepticism meets dark magic. The Director was voluntarily cursed by global practitioners and witch doctors.
This blurs the lines between belief, psychology, and the supernatural. Visually immersive, culturally rich, and unnervingly personal, it challenges reality's limits without easy answers. A haunting dive into the mind's power
Sequel needed into a deeper darker element to it. Loved it.
I loved how it covered different cultures and places and gave a global perspective on the dark world of magic and how despite miles apart that they all share similar characteristics which make you think there is a truth to the beliefs.

Firstly all the other reviews look like they were written by Ai. I have a strong feeling alot of the reviews and ratings are manipulated by the film maker or his cohorts. Because.. this documentary is a total waste of time, it is borderline one of the worst docs I've ever seen. The main guy has zero charisma and is painfully boring,he has zero personality. It would of been nice if he could of been cursed with one. Don't waste your time he doesn't even get a single bad curse in the entire show, everything is a knock off. They've paid tourist traps to do a private show. It's honestly so bloody awful, that the other reviews are blowing my mind.
Please someone else watch it, so they can see just how terrible this show is.

Liam delves into a dark place where I would not dare. This documentary is fascinating and thought provoking. Visually appealing and keeps you on the edge of your seat. This movie takes you on a journey around the world to places you will never wish to go. I got chills seeing some of the scenes of the rituals. As he walks into the cave in Mexico to make a pact with the devil it absolutely freaked me out. This is not something to play with and the fact that he did this deliberately is astounding but it does make for an exciting film. He should be so thankful that he got himself out from under the curses before it spiraled out of his control. Definitely worth a watch!
A Cursed Man is a really interesting documentary because it deals with the supernatural and asks the question: What if the filmmaker gets cursed to see if it's real? Hell yeah, I want to see that. Even if you don't believe in being cursed, why would anyone risk it by willingly being the recipient? Well, thankfully, Liam Le Guillou, the director and star, allows that to happen to him. And we're not talking about a good luck curse-he allows a dark curse, and the way he engages with people who specialize in the dark arts, is a fun way to learn about this world.
A cool aspect of this documentary goes into how Voodoo and witchcraft are all about being interconnected and how the mind can influence our physical being. I kind of now want to study Voodoo. One Voodoo priest even calls out the filmmaker by calling him entitled to want to be cursed, and I'm so happy they left that in because it gives the doc more credibility.
The doc follows Liam who travels all over the world talking with different people who are either experts in black magic or scientists who can put a scientific spin on things.
It's beautifully shot and moves pretty fast. It's worth watching not only to see how the curses affect the filmmaker but also for the intriguing inside look into this dark world from a skeptical filmmaker's perspective.

A CURSED MAN
Gripping and unsettling, A Cursed Man is a fascinating dive into the unknown that challenges the boundaries of belief and reality. Filmmaker Liam Le Guillou embarks on a daring experiment, subjecting himself to alleged dark magic to test its effects firsthand. What follows is a tense and thought-provoking journey that blends eerie encounters with scientific insight, raising profound questions about the power of the mind and the consequences of belief.
The documentary's strength lies in its ability to maintain a sense of skepticism while fully immersing the audience in an unsettling atmosphere. Le Guillou approaches his subject with both curiosity and caution, leading to moments that are as unnerving as they are revelatory. The film masterfully balances eerie rituals with expert analysis, creating an experience that is both chilling and intellectually stimulating.
Visually, A Cursed Man leans into its eerie subject matter with haunting cinematography that enhances the tension. Dark, shadowy settings and ominous sound design heighten the film's unsettling tone, making even the most skeptical viewer feel a creeping sense of unease. Yet, beneath the supernatural elements, the documentary also delves into the psychology of fear, suggestion, and belief, revealing how the mind can manifest real consequences from perceived threats.
Whether you approach it as an investigation of dark magic or a psychological experiment, A Cursed Man is undeniably compelling. It lingers long after the credits roll, leaving viewers to question the true power of curses - whether supernatural or self-inflicted.
A must-watch and well worth the price of admission.
