This film was styled and copied wholesale from the superior "The Craft." Ronnie (Jennifer Cipolla ) takes the role of Fairuza Balk. Four college girl witches are in search of a fifth to form a coven and raise the soul of Ashura who was bound/killed 200 years ago.

If you miss "The Craft" this one might whet your appetite. It could have been better and some scenes that lasted too long in order to fill in the history. The scriptwriter knows very little about the topic and pieces together words. There is no autumn solstice. It is an equinox. Clearly no one on the set knew the difference either, but solstice sounds better. And yes it is common for meteor showers to occur on the same day every year as the earth passes through the same area of space annually. Lunar eclipses do not happen in the same location in even 200-year cycles. They run in a saros of 18 years 11 days 8 hours. Girls were cute which means we can overlook some acting ability. They needed a famous "B" star for the shop keeper or someone from the original "Craft."

Guide: F-word. FF sex. Nudity (Miranda O'Hare, Jessica Louise Long )

Five undergrad witches come together to perform a ritual in order to invoke the powers of the lethal demon Ashura. After Ashura takes possession of the coven's most evil member, it's up to two other coven members to stop her.

Directed with stylish assurance by Margaret Malandruccolo, with an enjoyable story that unfolds at a quick pace, a pleasing sincere tone, snappy coarse dialogue, neatly drawn characters, pretty good special effects considering the modest budget, and a bevy of scantly clad hot babes along with some tasty bare boobs, this movie overall rates as a good deal of straight-up Grade B fun. The scenes with the coven conjuring up demons and using their magic are done with considerable aplomb. Moreover, it's acted with zest by an enthusiastic cast: Lizzie Gordon as the sympathetic Sophie (Gordon also wrote the compact script),Jennifer Cipolla as ruthless ringleader Ronnie, Margot Major as the perky, but timid Beth, Adam Horner as nice guy James, Terri Ivens as sweet history professor Dr. Lynn, Jessica Louise Long as the libidinous Taylor, Miranda O'Hare as the snarky Jax, and Sofya Skya as the helpful Emily. A cool little flick.

From choice of filter, cameras, angles and editing, to the acting, setting and story. It's so bad that my cringe reaction was delayed out of pure disbelief.
