- TriviaIn a 1985 interview, Stan Lee cited this movie as the Marvel television project of the 1970s that he wound up giving the most input, and noting he became very friendly with Writer, Executive Producer, and Director Philip DeGuere, Jr. Lee added that next to The Incredible Hulk, this was the live-action adaptation of a Marvel character with which he was most pleased at the time. Lee was disappointed by the movie's low ratings, which he attributed to being aired against Roots (1977).

Featured review
By itself, the film is a very dated and very cheesy 70s film about an evil sorceress who wants to defeat her magical rival. It's somewhat fun to watch. As an adaptation of Doctor Strange, it fails because it takes far too long to transform the titular character from a regular human to the sorcerer supreme. The setup has some decent suspense as a civilian is under the spell of the villain Morgan LeFay and Stephen Strange has to figure out what's going on, all while the current sorcerer is under threat. However, this drags on for too long and the payoff is anticlimactic as Doctor Strange learns his powers too quickly and the special effects are laughable.
