Corny low-budget Full Moon Features knock-off of Doctor Strange. Producer/co-director Charles Band originally had a deal with Marvel to produce a movie version of Doctor Strange in the same era as the famously awful low-budget Roger Corman 90s Fantastic Four movie adaptation. Jeffrey Combs (a Charles Band regular) plays the titular character, a modern-day wizard living in uptown Manhattan, who battles cosmic horrors (mostly Brian "COBRA" Thompson) unbeknownst to the mortals living around him. Sound familiar? Although clearly a ripoff, it's an endearing direct-to-video corny good time. Don't watch this film if you're looking for a Marvel style of film (unless it's the 70s live-action Amazing Spider-Man TV series your expecting), but watch this if you're into other Full Moon films like DOLLMAN, PUPPET MASTER, or OBLIVION, you'll dig this movie. On a related note, NICK FURY: AGENT OF SHIELD is my favorite of the corny 90s Marvel adaptations (BLADE is obviously the best not corny adaptation), which I actually prefer over most of the big-budget polished MCU films.
