This film is so underrated - Realm of Shadows is a nice dark feature with awesome characters. I hope there's a sequel to this.

An Unexpected Gem

I will be honest-this is not my usual type of movie to watch...at all. But you may want to hear me out. I wanted to give it a try because I had heard interesting things about it. And I was surprised, to say the least! There was something very raw and something completely different about this film that drew me in and held my attention. I actually wanted to keep watching it to see what happened next. And, the ending even got me wanting more. I won't ruin the ending, but it was skillfully done. This movie is not your normal movie at all. But, it is these things...Unique, Gripping, and Makes you think. An Unexpected Gem!
Not really worthwhile in the slightest

Locked in a struggle between good and evil, a group of witches spread several stories that help to examine this while battling against their tormentors.
This was a wholly convoluted and underwhelming anthology. The vast majority of the segments here are generally quite problematic, mostly ranging from a problematic setup that makes it difficult to figure out what's going on with repeated actors doing different characters with the same name with little context to denote what's going on. As many of them are so haphazardly introduced with a lame starting point of the strange women with the Ouija board fighting off a priest and cardinal out to stop them for whatever reason since we're dropped into it without context, this whole setup offers no cohesion for the segments to come as everything just feels random afterward. On top of that, very few of the segments are actually interesting, and even fewer are scary. The first one about a guy whose dream girl magically decides to be with him following an encounter with a mysterious bartender is painfully dull and not even remotely close to horror, a follow-up segment involving dreams and fantasies coming to life doesn't add much to a bland story from the start, a set piece involving a college professor trying to talk to his class about issues he's facing leads to nowhere thrilling, and a lame wraparound segment featuring the truth about the rival forces at play from the beginning here is so bogged down in explaining this overarching setup between good and evil that it borders on tedium. Now, several stories are decent enough to be redeemable. A stylish, dialogue-free story about a family tormented by a Satanic coven of witches has some intriguing ideas and visuals that belie its brief running time that's over before it veins, a fantastic segment about a mother accused of killing her infant son generates plenty of intriguing ideas at play as things play out to a wholly chilling truth that again could've used more time, and a monster story about a family preyed upon by a mysterious creature and the circumstances surrounding it has some fun moments here. However, the lackluster other segments and a confusing structure for how these all come together really doom this one.
Rated Unrated/R: Violence and Language.
