Leave your thoughts about The First Power.
| Georgia StraightSteve NewtonWhen you get right down to it, make-up and masks aren't nearly as scary as a human countenance hiding a black heart. |
| Washington PostDesson ThomsonA disposable intermixing of son-of-Satan and cop-thriller cliches, featuring the requisite string of murder victims (with bloody pentagrams carved into their bodies). |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasResnikoff fails to sustain the tension established in the opening sequences, and the plot quickly degenerates into a repetitive pattern of possession and exorcism for the victims requisitioned by Channing's soul to do its bidding. With the exception of Phillips, the performances are remarkably unconvincing. |
| Washington PostRichard HarringtonThe First Power tries awfully hard to combine two popular film genres -- the police thriller and the occult assault -- and comes up short on both ends. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanYet another low-grade spectacular about an evil force that leaps from body to body. |
