My Review: Although an older film, released in 1980 and originally known in Australia as "Harlequin", Dark forces was actually a very well made picture with tense directing and good acting. The story is kind of weird it has a lot of political satire which can relate to the politicians of today and the influence other people have on their decision making in office. However in this film it's more of miracles vs. science, righteousness vs. corruption and so on. It's an odd film, one of those fantasy horror films that make you think. This one is not for all fantasy and horror fans, the film has more of an artful message and is not just one of those films meant to entertain you. However I found the script to be solid, the acting was great and the plot flowed very well and kept my attention most of the time. Overall a really good film, and well worth checking out. - Horror Bob
