Critic Reviews for Prometheus Triumphant: A Fugue in the Key of Flesh

All Critics (3) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (1)

Jim Towns and Mike McKown's Prometheus Triumphant: A Fugue in the Key of Flesh is an admirably ambitious homage to the pure emotional power of the classic silent cinema.

January 23, 2009 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

Kevin Thomas
Los Angeles Times
Top Critic
The film's overall style wants more than Janick's quest to reanimate one woman - an entire world seems doomed, if only Town's scenario could show it.

November 19, 2009 | Rating: 3/5

Matthew Sorrento
Film Threat
Prometheus Triumphant sets lofty goals for itself but fails to find an original entry point or live up to its objectives.

Audience Reviews for Prometheus Triumphant: A Fugue in the Key of Flesh

Dec 28, 2009

A mad doctor reanimates his love who died of the plague in an unspecified medieval time and place in this modern silent movie mixing the plots of FRANKENSTEIN and PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. Boring as hell, and with its mundane camerawork, unevocative Pittsburgh locations, anachroinisms and misspelled intertitles, it's a virtual insult to its classic Expressionist inspirations. This is what all bad movies made by film school dropouts would look like if sound and color film stock had never been invented. Avoid.
