This is a low budget straight to DVD film that mixes up The Omen with Carrie. Christian Slater whose career hit the skids somewhere in the mid 1990s (who remembers that once he was regarded as the new Jack Nicholson?) plays a weird priest who believes that his book reveals the existence of an anti Christ. Vinnie Jones plays a detective who hails from England but now migrated to a small American town. He loves his daughter who is going out with a high school jock who meets a nasty death. She is also attracted to a childhood friend Robbie who has returned after an incident some years ago. His return sets off a bizarre chain of events. This is just a low budget, derivative B movie. One of the leads, Jake Croker must be the oldest high school student in town. His hairline is receding. Apart from guessing which film it knocks off you can guess that there will be a twist in the ending.

Review: I was waiting for ages for something to happen in this movie, but it was just too slow and the showdown at the end wasn't that great. It was good to see Vinnie Jones playing an emotional character except for a heavy baddie, like most of his movies, but the storyline was pretty weak and the acting from the other characters was poor. The twist at the end came way to late in the film and Christian Slater was only in a couple of scenes, even though he's plastered all of the poster. We have all seen this type of concept before, we're a teenage stranger comes into college and he gets picked on by the popular students, so the storyline wasn't original or even slightly interesting. In all, I wasn't that impressed with this cheaply made movie which didn't have that much thought behind it. Disappointing! Round-Up: Poor Christian Slater! He just seems to be taking in any project that comes his way, and they all seem to be badly made films that go straight to DVD. His career seemed promising after starring in big films like Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves, Interview With A Vampire and True Romance, but his career went on a downhill slump when the work dried up. The same goes for other promising actors like Val Kilmer and Cuba Gooding Jr. who also go straight to DVD, after having box office success earlier on in there careers. Vinnie Jones impressed me in this film because he seemed to be more natural and calm in his role. Its just a shame that the actual movie wasn't that good. I also found his annoying daughter quite irritating, which didn't help because she was the main character, so in all, it's not a movie that I would be watching again in a hurry. Budget: $3million Worldwide Gross: N/A I recommend this movie to people who are into there spooky drama/thrillers, about a teenage boy who has a shady past and gets picked on by the popular students at college. 2/10

Religious horror and thriller movies are a dime a dozen these days. Ever since "The Exorcist" hit screens in 1973, the world has been in a state of satanic panic. There's always a constant flow of possession or devil- baby flicks being released in the independent world of horror and touched upon in the mainstream at least once every six months or so. Some of them rise above the standard fare, while others fizzle out and are forgotten. "Way of the Wicked" falls short of being memorable by offering nothing new to audiences. Robbie (Jake Croker) is a disturbed young teen suspected of causing a mysterious death. After five years, he returns to his hometown to start anew. Still pining for the local police detective's (Vinnie Jones) daughter Heather (Emily Tennant), he befriends her and incurs the wrath of the girl's popular schoolmates and suitor. They begin turning up dead as each torments Robbie and bothers his love interest. Can Father Henry (Christian Slater) use the powers of his faith to stop the killings? "Way of the Wicked" plays out like a mashed-up version of "Carrie" and "The Omen." Although the image used to promote the movie screams "The Exorcist," what viewers find inside is a hodge-podge of elements taken from other films featuring teens with telekinetic powers. The only tie to religious thrillers is a prophecy Father Henry is investigating. Upon first viewing, it's vague whether the foretelling is from the Bible or another book associated with it. I doubt anyone would want to view it a second time just to catch whether it's one or the other. The acting in "Way of the Wicked" never comes into question. Both Vinnie Jones and Christian Slater act like they're personally invested in the film. Emily Tennant does a great job emoting as Heather. Jake Croker is absolutely creepy as Robbie. His performance and haunting stare made my skin crawl. "Way of the Wicked" is unrated. It features violence, adult situations, and language. Viewers don't have to sit through any unnecessary * scenes. I can see this airing on the Chiller Channel on a Friday or Saturday night. Even "Way of the Wicked's" attempt at a twist ending ends up falling flat. It just makes the whole thing more of a copycat of past movies much better than this. Even though you don't see it coming and it's well-delivered, you still are left with a sense of déjà vu as the credits roll. I can think of films that are a bigger waste of time, but you'd still be better off re-watching "Carrie," "Firestarter," or "The Omen."

There are pretty much all the cliché in the movie. The as***** jock, the cool bad guy who is so desirable, faithful friends (some more hysterical than others!), and the girl who is the object of desire. Also we have the priest with the crazy theory and the overprotective dad. I couldn't get sympathetic or identify with the characters. I was wondering why they act so stupid in the entire movie. More stupid than in usual movies. Hmmm So you suspect the character of the bad guy as being the one who killed your friend, lets go and see what will happen if you treat him badly too! There are no real surprises in the movie although it has a small twist in the end which you might guess and expect. In the entire movie though you wonder why everybody acts more stupid than in the normal horror movies. There are also some parts where you don't make a lot of sense like something is missing. The movie is watchable although it is a little bit boring at some parts, but you might enjoy it I think! Especially if you like the prophecy and the omens about the end of days!

Passable for Covid lockdown viewing - only 90 minutes. Not a complete turkey. Credit to The combination of Christian Slater, Vinnie Jones and the Antichrist is a little weird. Goodness knows what Slater's agent was thinking. The twist in the ending is somewhat contrived and a letdown. Credit to Jake Croker for holding his own in the film - in fact he almost ends up 'carrying' it. Some credit too to Aren Buchholz.

There are actors here who are talented. Others, not so much. The story, on the other hand, should have never been told. There is hidden agenda here; and extremely poor storytelling. The director makes sure that one of the highlights of the film is the high school science teacher explaining in detail a hypothesis concerning evolution on other planets. This may vaguely fit in with the birth of the devil baby and how it is allegedly more powerful and smarter than any other human, but the connection is never made. The bottom line is that the writer can't write himself out of a wet paper bag, and without a good story how can a good film be made? I rarely review on the lower end of the star system, and only do so to help potential viewers avoid wasting their time.

I have very rarely seen such a ridiculous movie in my life. The twist was laughable, and made the movie worse. It was a teen angst drama disguised as horror pretending to be a movie. I want those two hours back.

Father Henry (Christian Slater) investigates Robbie, a 12-year-old boy who seems to have supernatural powers. A bully was chocked to death by an invisible force. Five years later, Robbie Mueller (Jake Croker) returns to town focused on Heather Elliot (Emily Tennant) who tried to help during the childhood incident. Bully Greg wants her for homecoming. When Greg starts pushing Robbie, Greg is hospitalized by the invisible force. Father Henry has also returned. When Greg is killed, Heather's police detective widower-dad John Elliot (Vinnie Jones) investigates. The production looks weak and is no more than cable TV level. There is way too much sunshine for a dark horror. The cinematography and editing are basic. Even the kill is simple blood splashes and random guts. There is no real energy. The presence of Christian Slater and Vinnie Jones attracted me to this movie but that's never a guarantee of anything. Jake Croker is not leading man material. His character should be darker and he doesn't have the screen presence. Emily Tennant shows a little potential and actually tries to do some acting. The obvious twist is good but not completely done well. The production is so weak that it doesn't have anything to offer cinematically.

It appears creepy little Robbie Mueller (Jake Croker) has telekinetic power and people who want to harm him, tend to die. After being away from his home town for five years he is back in high school creeping everybody out with his knowledge of Drake's Equation, bad hair, and inability to smile. The only thing more creepy is Christian Slater playing a defrocked priest following him around wearing a gold gangsta cross. Robbie has designs for Heather (Emily Tennant) who shows as much emotion as Kristen Stewart. Her father is a small town detective played by Vinnie Jones who is as convincing as when he played Ivan Rudovsky.The film felt like I was listening to someone tell a story who doesn't know how to tell a story. I had "Carrie" flashbacks as well as "The Omen." The small Washington state town with a girl being liked by a guy with special powers had me thinking "Twilight" especially with the low end acting. There is a twist which I admit didn't see coming, because the clues were light and you were dragged heavily in one direction. So think twist, and if you get it before the last 30 minutes, I owe you a Scooby-Snack. The film might have some stoner camp value to it. Not a serious horror/thriller. Parental Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity

Formulaic, half-baked film about Robbie, the weird bullied kid with unique and sinister powers; Heather, his pretty friend from childhood whose doting British dad is a cop; Greg, the cool jock-jerk with carnal desires for Heather; Heather's friends and Greg's friends, none of whom contribute a whole lot except as filler; and finally, Father Henry, the kooky "priest" played by Christian Slater who's read some arcane medieval texts and has Robbie all figured out. Good cinematography with pretty scenery makes WAY OF THE WICKED basically watchable. Still, this hinders as much as it helps because you may be left wishing you hadn't bothered to finish it. The plot follows the same pattern that's been done--and done much better--a gazillion times before. Full of loose ends and unanswered questions, e.g., Why don't the cops question Heather about Greg? Some routine, unimaginative, tacked-in twists and "surprises." Most of the script, Robbie's excepted, is similarly lame. Another film where it doesn't seem the makers had much of a clue what to make happen, particularly when it came to ending it, so they said with a shrug, "Oh, well, let's just get this out and make a few Redbox bucks off it."
