To me more of a remake or a retelling of the original as Julian Sands returns as the title character. Here it is slightly different as he must be reborn in a crazy scene that tries to but in my opinion does not outdo a similar scene in XTRO. Not for the squeamish anyways. He's brought to modern times to capture rune stones and bring Satan to earth. Standing in his way are druids (including Steve Kahan, R.G. Armstrong, Charles Hallahan and Bruce Glover) who train their children (Chris Young and {Paula Marshall) to battle this evil warlock and send him back. In those scenes it seemed like jedi training to me and Kenny needed to listen to Master Yoda a little closer.
Sands is still great as the warlock and his character seems even more hell bent on leaving victims. A better than average horror flick cast as well that also includes George 'Buck' Flower that will have to keep a quick eye out for and Zach Galligan in a hilarious scene. I generally enjoy Anthony Hickox films so I was looking forward to viewing this one. It is much gorier than the original, but in today's standards some of the effects don't work much better than the original. Worth a watch though if you enjoyed the original.
