Black Angel

About This Movie

Black Angel (1980) carries this dreamlike quality, blending adventure, fantasy, and horror in a unique way. The film’s pacing feels almost languid, allowing moments of tension to settle, which really enhances the eerie atmosphere. The practical effects, though not always polished, have a certain charm that gives the film character. The performances, particularly from the knight, add a weight to the quest-driven narrative. It’s interesting how it explores themes of loss and redemption in a fantastical setting, all while the visuals evoke a sense of dark fairy tale. There's a rawness to it that sticks with you, making it a curious piece from the era.
