Reviews from Letterboxd:
-
Rafael “Parker!!” Jovine – ★★★★½
“One of my favorite things is when I come across a film practically by chance and wind up discovering a picture that may be deemed a masterpiece in its field. That ending, for example, is certainly among the top five most brutal I’ve ever seen.” -
c h r i s – ★★★★
“Rosemary’s Baby but make it category III and tonally inconsistent. A massively creepy slow burn Hong Kong possession flick that supplies just enough supernatural happenings and wicked death scenes to satisfy!” -
c h r i s – ★★★★
“The final 20 minutes make up for the lackluster middle act. Love to see directors’ versions of the gates of hell and a freeze frame to make my eyes bleed.”
Meta Description:
A chilling Hong Kong horror film from 1981, The Imp blends supernatural suspense with tragic dread as a security guard uncovers dark forces targeting his unborn child.
