FROM HELL is one of the few mainstream movies this year to get excited about. It is an amazingly well made movie with terrific performances. It's a horror movie that earns it scares, because they come out of credible situations. Johnny Depp, who is always fantastic, is great here as the opium addicted detective on the trail of Jack the Ripper. Heather Graham gives her best performance since BOOGIE NIGHTS as the hooker who might be next. Robbie Coltrane is wonderful as the chubby, sergeant and Ian Holm does a great job as a doctor. The Hughes Brothers have been great directors since their first film, MENACE II SOCIETY, and here they have outdone themselves. The movie is full of tremendous images, not least of which are the grisly murders themselves. FROM HELL is a definite must see!
