Rating:  - "Fallen" is better
Police Detective Russel Logan (Lou Diamond Phillips) thinks that catching serial killer Patrick Channing (Jeff Kober) and sending him to the gas chamber will be enough to stop his killing spree. That is, until the killings start again and professional psychic Tess Seaton (Tracy Griffith) shows up in his life, insisting that Patrick has been given the "first power" by the devil and has used it to rise from the dead.
The plot of "The First Power" is very similar to that of "Fallen" (which ... Read More
Rating:  - A difficult movie to review.

Rating: - The First Time Jeff Kober scared the Bejeezus out of me
I can't understand the low ratings for this film. I will always remember it for its odd but attractive cast, the strange twists and novel occult storyline and for the first appearance to me of Jeff Kober who went on to scare me by turning up in many movies and tv shows including Buffy and Kindred the Embraced. This movie made me laugh and yelp. Watching this movie was the first time I appreciated being in a crowded movie theater because the howls and laughter of the young audience really enhanced the experience. ... Read More
