Audience Member How many teenage witch franchises were there in the 90s?! Ok, lets sum this up. Interesting premise: no. Original story: no. Interesting characters: no. Budget: hell no. Result: guess. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I was excited to see A.J. Cook on the cast list because i loved her in Final Destination 2. That's probably the only reason I decided to watch this. The opening reminded me of TV Shows like Are You Afraid of The Dark or Goosebumps. It was just like that. I wasn't expecting it to be very good but the movie brought me back to the 90's and I really enjoyed it. Overall - good movie to watch if you feel like reminiscing. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member When your budget is that low, and your script sucks that bad, why even bother trying to make a movie? Possibly the worst movie ever made. In an almost-funny way. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member BEST FUCKING MOVIE EVER!!! -Andrea, Rue, and Kelsea Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
