BEFORE MAN WALKED THE EARTH…IT SLEPT FOR CENTURIES. IT IS EVIL. IT IS REAL. IT IS AWAKENING.
A research team finds a mysterious cylinder in a deserted church. If opened, it could mean the end of the world.
The 2nd film of John Carptenter's Apocalypse Trilogy (THE THING, IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS) mashes up conspiratorial Catholocism, cosmic horror, and high-tech science fiction straight out of the Quatermass serials, so much so that Carpenter's writing credit on the film is Martin Quatermass. Enveloped in Carpenter and Allan Howarth's most haunting synth score, PRINCE OF DARKNESS excels at slowly creeping into your subconscious. That atmosphere of dread and impending doom, punctuated by prophetic degraded video footage beamed directly into your dreams, shows us that yet again John Carpenter was always ahead of the curve and will always haunt our nightmares. - Steven Landry
