I think I expected this one to be a little bit like The Craft. Yeah...not so much.
It is fairly derivative of other movies I have seen. Though one is tempted to compare this to the TV version of Buffy, it did come out before Buffy hit the airwaves.
School girls, underground temple, ancient evil cult. Though there are a couple of highlights.
First it is the acting debut of Clea Duvall. Zelda Rubinstein is in it. Sheeri Rappaport is not bad in it. And it was only filmed in two weeks.
There is a kernel of a good movie here, buried under cliches and mediocre acting, again Clea Duvall and Sheeri Rappaport are the exception here. The demon at the end was neat, kinda like a poor man's Demogorgon.
Not much I could find in this to extract for a game that I haven't seen elsewhere. Even though, a good take on this kind of story would be nice. Though it would make for a rather thin plot for a Hellcats and Hockeysticks.
I was hoping for something more to be honest.
(not Fairuza Balk)

Cripes! They couldn't be more blatant in ripping off poor Fairuza's signature look, couldn't they?
ReplyDeleteClea DuVall was so underused in Heroes. (Typing her first name makes me wonder... have you ever statted up her namesake from Dr. Strange?)
You know I havent, but I should someday. Her and Jennifer Morgan from DC.
