I had actually never heard about this 1988 horror movie titled "Curse of the Blue Lights", but of course I opted to watch it, as I happened to stumble upon it by random chance. And having grown up with horror movies in the 1980s, of course there was a certain appeal to finding a movie such as this.
However, writers John Henry Johnson and Bryan Sisson didn't exactly deliver anything grand or wholesome in terms of script and storyline for the movie. It was actually a rather boring, monotonous and sort of uninteresting storyline, and the movie failed to capture my interest, much less provide much of any entertainment or enjoyment for me. So it was quite an ordeal to suffer through 93 minutes of watching "Curse of the Blue Lights".
I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in "Curse of the Blue Lights", nor can I say that I was really impressed with anything that transpired on the screen. But then again, and fair should be fair, the actors and actresses didn't really have much to work with , now did they?
Visually then "Curse of the Blue Lights" was low key. It wasn't good or memorable special effects, prostethics, and such. And the movie was suffering from that aspect.
This movie came and went without leaving a lasting impression on me, and it turned out that I hadn't been missing out on a great 1980s horror gem here from director John Henry Johnson.
My rating of "Curse of the Blue Lights" lands on a two out of ten stars.
