fantastic and very disturbing film,
By epsy (Turner, ME United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sentinel (Full Screen) (DVD)
This is definetely the epitome of 70's horror. Most of which is very direct and in-your-face. Sure to be a hit at any sleepover, it's a must for any horror fan's collection!
4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent 70's Horror!,
By Stauf "Stauf" (IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sentinel (Full Screen) (DVD)
I am going to play out some favoritism here. This is one of the best horror films to come out of the 70's, and onto DVD. Not only is it a great story; full of twisted characters, sick shock scenes, and deviant sexual content (all with a root of pure evil), it has an unbelievably star-studded cast! Ask yourself, "Where else, but in the "The Sentinel" can a great actor, like Christopher Walken, say so little, and chew so much gum, and still make it look pretty damn good?" (Was that Wrigley's, or Juicy-Fruit?) Even more...check out Burgess Meredith as Satan himself! You think Burgess never got more evil than The Penguin? Guess again kiddo! OK. Don't expect DOLBY sound (The sound is good, considering the age of the film). Don't look for digitally enhanced effects, or quality (No one would want to sink that kind of cash into this 'un). And don't expect a lot of extras (There really aren't any). What you do get is the uncut (HALLELUJAH!!!) version of a very decent print of the film (Sorry. No widescreen folks). Get it because, soon, you may never see a chance to get it again. This film is very obscure, and will, in time, be lost forever. Great for dark nights, and popcorn! Turn off the lights, and have a chill.

Excellent Horror Classic; curious difference in story,
By Peter F. Makres (Largo, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sentinel (Full Screen) (DVD)
I have just purchase the DVD from Goodtimes Video of the 70's horror classic. As other customers have noted, it is really worth having, and there is indeed a lot that you will see that is cut out of "TV" versions. However, there is at least one scene missing from the DVD, and I wonder if other viewers have noticed this..that is the scene or scenes that pertain to the group of priests who call themselves "The Brotherhood of the protectors" who had been disbanded from the church for their beliefs. The is at least one scene showing a meeting of the "brothers" that is in my age-old tape of a television broadcast of the film that is not shown in the DVD. However, in the beginning of the DVD, the movie begins in Northern Italy with a group of priests discussing the "danger" as do the "brotherhood" in the "other" version. I also note the another DVD version is set to be released on September 7, 2004 by Umvd. So, I await this release to see if the deleted scene is included. I wonder if anyone would like to comment on this oddity? Aside from this curious detail, I thoroughly enjoyed the DVD from Goodtimes Video.
