Эпическое, амбициозное, беззастенчиво эрудированное апокалиптическое фэнтези с элементами научной фантастики и готического хоррора, наполненное ссылками на Вагнера, Дрейера, Хичкока и мифологии европейских стран, аллюзиями на «Доктора Кто», Говарда Филлипса Лавкрафта, Стивена Кинга и Джона Карпентера, — едва ли британское телевидение знало что-то подобное; ничего лучше BBC c тех пор не выпускал. По телевидению фильм показали лишь однажды и, несмотря на многочисленные просьбы, не выпустили на видеокассетах. Легендой среди фанатов фэнтези и научной фантастики он стал задолго до того, как триумфально вышел из заточения, — в 2007 году он был выпущен на DVD.
