DVD Description
Year 2000, Cambridge University, Dr Joshua Mather’s state-of-the-art virtual reality suit is being linked to the world’s biggest super computer, the Z93. Local programmer, and occult obsessive, Victor Neumann has been secretly uploading all of late Edwardian magician Aleister Crowley’s black magic ceremonies into the Z93 in binary form, with the intention of fusing science and magic with the help of his accomplice, the stuttering Classics lecturer Dr Oliver Haddo.

Haddo enters the suit without realising that Mathers has made it ‘intelligent’ by adding a random chaos equation into the mix and the result is his transformation into Crowley himself. In order to reinstate his place on Earth he must perform the ultimate occult ritual, the Chemical Wedding within 3 days…

2.0 out of 5 stars Amusing at the very best, 8 April 2009
By peregrinus (London, UK) - See all my reviews
Oh dear, I don't even know where to start...
For Dickinson's fans - well, it seems that Bruce was a bit bored and wanted to do something entertaining, result - the soundtrack is probably the best part of the movie.
For horror/thriller fans - forget about thrills. Oh, you do get a dead body or two and some sex scenes that are more untasteful than obscenic but in general it's more hilarious than horrifying.
And for Crowley fans - I'm telling you, there will be tears...
I didn't give it one star only because I did enjoy the music and there were a few amusing scenes :)

3.0 out of 5 stars Great idea, confusing execution, 9 Mar 2009
By Herbie Brennan (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Callow is magnificent as Crowley and whoever scripted this movie did his homework: there are endless subtle references to the Great Beast's life and works. The occult aspects worked well (within the context of a thriller movie) but the 'scientific' elements were frankly confusing.

4.0 out of 5 stars A surprising and shocking hit, 9 Oct 2008
I did not know what to expect when i got this film about a lecturer who is possessed by the spirit of occult obsessive aleister crowley after entering a virtual reality machine that has his thoughts and teachings programmed in it. What i got was an amazing viewing experience. Simon Callow is amazing as aleister giving him a multi layered personality, the screen just lights up whenever he is on and he dominates this movie. But acting overall is fantastic in this movie. Some of the scences of sexual occultism are quite shocking but it is never to ott and helps keep the realism the film has created. The only downside is the slighlty crazy last sequance where it almost ruins a perfectly crafted film. A must see for anyone interested in crowley or any one who likes their mystery with a bit of spice.
