 Shadowbuilder - the original story April 5, 2004
Great movie though it only shares its title with the original story. As a lot of people wondered about the source of the story, I'm happy to provide the answer. Just get a copy of the story collection "Under the Sunset" by Bram Stoker. But beware this is collection of stories mostly written for children which features quite a bit of Stoker's own moral concept. Anyway the story has nothing much what could be called a plot, but for Stoker addicts the whole collection has quite some worthwhile aspects.
A SURPRISE THRILLER January 16, 2004

Jamie Dixon's direction of "Bram Stoker's Shadowbuilder" brings real terror and atmosphere to a derivative theme: the devil wants to come to earth. With unusually good special fx for this direct to video type of movie, the film builds its suspense and terror, aided by a good musical score (strongly reminiscent of "The Omen"); a talented cast (Michael Rooker may be a little too much, but his intensity is well handled for this role); and Tony Todd (CANDYMAN) as the rather nutsy Covey. Leslie Hope is good as the mom, but she doesn't get as much screen time as one may think.
Lots of good tension and this is a good movie, should have gotten more exposure.

Loved the VHS version of this film. Tried 3 different DVD versions none of which would play on my 2 DVD players or my computer. Stick with the VHS version.

One of Bram Stroker's Best May 20, 2003
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Shadowbuilder was really a great movie; when I first rented it I wasn't expecting much, but it turned out to be an excellent movie. Bram Stroker who is best known for Dracula wrote this originally and it shows. The acting was very good for the most part as well, particularly by young actor Kevin Zegers (who played Christopher) the stigmata whom the Shadowbuilder seeks out in the hopes of undoing creation.
If you liked the movie Warlock, End of Days, or both you will definitely like this movie. I suspect that the movie End of Days borrowed somewhat from The Shadowbuilder.
