Advent is one of those films that captures the dark and unsettling transition from the Golden Age of cinema. It's got this oppressive atmosphere, where a once-heroic group, the Band of the Hawk, is cast into despair after Griffith's imprisonment. The pacing is jagged, reflecting the chaos of a world teetering on the brink of collapse. The practical effects are raw and visceral, making the violence feel incredibly weighty—it's not just for shock value. The performances carry a heavy emotional load, really digging into themes of betrayal, loss, and the cyclical nature of power. There's a relentless sense of dread throughout, making it distinct in how it portrays the rise of new darkness. Definitely a film that lingers in your mind long after the credits roll.
