Storyline

In Boston of 1691, a warlock is sentenced to death, but escapes magically into the future (our present), followed doggedly by the witch hunter. There he is searching for the three parts of the Devil's Bible, trailed by the witch hunter and the woman whose house he landed in. They must stop him, as the book contains the true name of God, which he can use to un-create the world. Written by Ed Sutton <esutton@mindspring.com>

Great horror adventure!
22 December 1999 | by (Florida) – See all my reviews

I saw this film a few years back, with my family, and we found it to be a funny, creepy and overall entertaining horror film. Steve Miner, who directed Friday the 13th Part 2, Friday the 13th Part 3 and House, directed himself another great entertaining piece. Lately though, he made Halloween H20, which ignored previous films, which were respected by die-hard Halloween fans. He also recently made the disappointing summer flick, Lake Placid. But his great horror movies are always going to be remembered by horror fans. And I hope again, he makes some great horror flicks.
