‘Incubus’ Blu-ray Review (Arrow Video)
Image
Stars: William Shatner, Allyson Ames, Eloise Hardt, Robert Fortier, Ann Atmar, Milos Milos | Written and Directed by Leslie Stevens

Incubus is a 60s experimental horror film starring William Shatner, notable not only for its eerie storyline but also for being one of the few films ever made entirely in Esperanto. Directed by Leslie Stevens (The Outer Limits), the movie blends supernatural horror with art-house sensibilities, resulting in a haunting and unique cinematic experience.

The story revolves around a young soldier, Marc (Shatner), recovering from war wounds in a peaceful village rumoured to possess a miraculous healing spring. This seemingly idyllic setting is tainted by the presence of succubi, demonic beings who seduce and corrupt mortal souls. One such succubus, Kia (Allyson Ames), grows dissatisfied with preying on the wicked and sets her sights on Marc, a pure and virtuous man. The resulting battle between good and evil unfolds in a slow,...

The "Cursed" Movie That Doomed William Shatner's Career as a Serious Actor
Image
William Shatner's sci-fi icon status hides a diverse range of cinematic and TV projects. Shatner's early career as a serious actor was effectively ended after starring in Leslie Stevens' Incubus, a film shot entirely in a language neither the audience nor actors understood. Despite being dismissed as a "cursed," obscure film, the supposedly "lost" film survived as a cult film, marking the most bizarre project in a very bizarre career.

William Shatner is the face of sci-fi for many generations of TV and movie fans. From his awesomely over-the-top roles in Wrath of Khan and video games to his side projects promoting obscure passion projects as director, and whatever the heck TekWar is, he's thoroughly permeated every form of media. Looking back now, it's hard to remember — make that impossible if you're under sixty — that Captain Kirk was all but declared the next Marlon Brando by Ed Sullivan, who brought the "brilliant,...

The 12 Best William Shatner Roles That Aren't Capt. James T. Kirk
Image
In 1966, Montreal-born William Shatner was cast in the role that would change his life, Capt. James Tiberius Kirk in NBC's sci-fi drama "Star Trek." Shatner would go on to play the starship captain for three seasons before reprising Kirk in a Saturday morning cartoon and then in several "Trek" movies throughout the 1970s, '80s, and '90s until Kirk's demise in 1994's "Star Trek Generations." There's no argument that Shatner — who celebrated his 91st birthday in March 2022 — will forever be associated with his "Trek" character. And while Kirk will always be his signature role, the truth is that it's one of many for an actor who first made his way to Hollywood in the 1950s after performing Shakespeare with the famed Stratford Festival in his native Canada.

In fact, Shatner has amassed a whopping 250 screen credits over the years. His roles have run the gamut, ranging from Ranger...
