I'm still not 100% sure how I feel about The Sentinel. I don't know if its the chest cold that's kicking my ass or the movie, but I feel like I never got my bearings, like I never got settled in as far as the movie was concerned. (I'm sure this is part of its effectiveness, but s... read more
Silly 70's occult "thriller" which doesn't provide many chills. A considerable amount of the trouble is that Cristina Raines is so flat in the lead. She projects nothing, has no screen charisma or any discernable acting ability. Another problem is that the script makes no sense r... read more
Absolutely insane piece of celluloud. Michael Winner, you crazy bastard!
Don't let this impressive cast list fool you...most of them are in very minor roles. Though it is still fun seeing them in their "swinging 70's" mode. Christopher Walken (in a nearly speechless role) as a police detective "side-kick. Beverly D'Angelo as a lesbian/nymphet. Ava ... read more
Great cast. Too bad Jeff Goldblum and Chris Walken had such small parts. Alsmost to the point of needlessness, I think Walken said 1 line in the whole movie. Had some fun parts, but I was finding myself wishing there was more crazy messed up stuff.

Christina Raines is very beautiful, I j... read more
A pretty creepy movie with a pretty good cast to go with it. At times this is very uneasy to watch, but it has some decent gore and a decent story to go with it. The ending was a bit bizarre and it gave you something to think about. The seventies sure seemed to have some decent a... read more
One of those 70's horror movie gems. For true horror fans, this movie does not disappoint. The visuals in this movie were astounding for the era and definitely pushed the envelope.
I watched this years ago on reg. TV. This was much better with many scenes that were deleted for reg TV viewing. a very young Christopher Walken. Fun to watch
...satisfies much like French fries, without asking too much of the kitchen but irresistible in the context %u2013 and notable if it were to disappoint. Here, it's the full big Mac package. Full Review
Dead people who throw cat birthday parties. Gotta love it! Full Review
One of the best horror films of the 70's. An intriguing story and disturbing imagery make this one stick out in the psyche.
How any self-respecting horror film fan can not like a movie that works on the premise that the entrance to hell is in a Brooklyn apartment building is beyond me. Full Review
