Comments:
A
fascinating film, most unusual and original. I loved
this movie. The acting, the plot and the twists and
turns kept me fascinated all the way to the end. Mickey
Rourke plays Harry Angel, a down on his luck private
eye who takes a case from a mysterious man (Robert
De Niro) who wants Harry to find a famous singer that
has vanished. De Niro is vague as to his reasons for
wanting this entertainer found and Harry is very reluctant
to take the case. His worries are proven true, when
a string of gruesome murders begin to follow him around
and the trail he follows leads him into New Orleans
and the world of voodoo.It is here that a number of
shocking secrets are revealed and leads to this films
stunning climax. A definite must see.
