Part Noir, Part Scarefest....Prepare to be Blown Away by it's uniquenessAugust 27, 2003
Odd, but not uninteresting horror opus from Clive Barker.July 06, 2010
It's a sad day for both fright fans and the man Stephen King once prophesied was "the future of horror".May 19, 2004
Better than people give it credit for, especially if the viewer fully appreciates the gay subtext.May 08, 2008
a cool flick from the master of grotesqueMarch 24, 2016
Gruesome but somewhat intelligent supernatural thriller.April 06, 2003
High concept, wavering script, completely weird.December 15, 2014
Sadly, with Lord of Illusions, Clive Barker stumbles into the same pitfalls he did when he made Nightbreed just five years earlier. It's dull, unengaging, and features a plot that is stretched out far past its breaking point.January 13, 2005
A terrific little horror film expertly renderd from Barker's own short story.January 01, 2000
Barker's visual side dominates its literary equivalent this time out, resulting in a time-killer that may amuse fans until illusion is shattered by the rolling of the end credits.
