Faust
God and Satan wager on the soul of a learned and prayerful alchemist as part of their eternal war over Earth.
HORROR SIGNAL
HORROR CENTRALITY
42
/100
Supernatural threat and the Mephistopheles pact are central to the plot, creating dread and horror imagery, but Faust is primarily a tragic fantasy/drama. Horror is meaningful and essential to the premise, yet not the film's defining identity.
DREADPICK SUMMARY
Best for viewers looking for a light on scares, psychological, slow-burning and low-gore horror movie.
