Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Put It On DVD Please !!!
I have been waiting for years for this movie to make it to dvd.To say that this movie is quirky is an understatement.
It follows a detective played beautifully by Dennis Hopper as he tries to solve a murder. What is unusual is
that the average Joe uses magic as part of his daily routine,i.e.want to take out your trash,simply think it

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Wonderfully different view of everyday witchcraft
When I first saw this movie in the theatres I was immediatly impressed with the idea of magic working itself into everyday life, from cooking to police work.Loosely based on the writings of H.P.

Suspensful story with innovative action and an unusual premise- modern day witches and gumshoes blur the lines of reality!

Besides starring Dennis Hopper, it also features Sheryl Lee Ralph, of dream girls fame, and the superb cameo, but nonetheless great ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Truly struck a chord with me
The first time I saw this movie was as a made for HBO movie, which is probably why most of my friends have not seen it as well as why it's so hard to find in video stores.As far as I can tell it borrows heavily fromRobert Heinlein's "Magic, Inc.", but doesn't follow the plot justsome of the plot elements.Would that someone would recreate "Magic,Inc." or "Waldo", or at least burn all copies of"Starship Troopers" and attempt to do tribute to the original. Why Hollywood believes that they ... Read More
