Pretty bad!

This review is coming from an 18-year-old girl's perspective, so obviously I didn't grow up in the 80s watching this movie as most of the movie reviewers here have. I may be grading this movie quite harshly comparing this movie with the current movies out, but I'm really trying not to. This movie, quite bluntly, is cheesetastic and its plot is unremarkable. Sure, it had its funny bits (((SPOILER: the lead character, Louisa, using a voodoo doll to control her teacher, who has penchant to humiliate Louisa- is a fine example))) and there were moments in the movie in which you probably weren't suppose to laugh, but you'll end up doing so anyway. There were also many predictable moments that had me rolling my eyes when I guessed correctly. If you're like me and didn't grow up in the 80s/ personally witnessed it- you will discover by watching this movie that it's 90 minutes gone out of your life that you will never get back- in my case however it's 72 minutes since megavideo cut me off. I found Dirty Dancing and Footloose much more enjoyable 80s films. However, if you're looking for witch-type films, you may enjoy The Craft much better.
