Black Magic

“Those who did not believe in the voodoo curse never lived to tell!”

Certified Crap. CrapScore 61, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
A magician sells love spells and death curses until his own desires complicate the business. This lurid Shaw Brothers detour trades martial arts for supernatural jealousy, elaborate rituals and melodrama that keeps finding a more unreasonable demand.
