just by casting a spell. Sarah (Robin Tunney - 'Empire Records') is a 17-year-old with a troubled past. Uprooted by her parents and moved to L.A. where she begins the final year at St. Benedict's Academy, Sarah is a lonely stranger - until she meets the brigade of black lipstick and nails:Nancy (Fairuza Balk - 'The Island of Dr. Moreau'), Bonnie (Neve Campbell - 'Scream' 1 & 2) and Rachel True - 'Beverly Hills 90210'. These girls may never be in with the in-crowd - they're barely in with each other, but recently they have been dabbling in the strange world of witchcraft and the Occult.With the addition of Sarah, their union is finally powerful enough to make their wishes come true... And dangerous enough to make their enemies very sorry!

innovative individuals to hail from Californias fecund Bay Area. They have always managed to deliver a solid balance of clever rhymes, breathtaking flows and bumpin beats and this latest long-player takes their funky manifesto to yet another level. Retaining the commercial feel of their last LP Blazing Arrows, The Craft draws on the duos long history of b-boyism, featuring considered collaborations with a vast array of live musicians and guests--Floetry, George Clinton and Larry Saunders among them. Xcels soundtrack is deep but not indulgent, and Gabs flow remains as breathtakingly sharp as it ever was. It might be a long way from the rawness of their groundbreaking Melodica EP (1995) but The Craft demonstrates how its possible to be perfectly accessible while remaining creatively untouchable.

experience, here's a movie that asks the burning question, "What happens when angst-ridden teenagers develop supernatural powers?" More to the point, how do four outcast teenaged witches handle their ability to cast wicked spells on the taunting classmates who've nicknamed them "The Bitches of Eastwick"? The answer, of course, is "don't get mad, get even." That's about all there is to this terminally silly movie, which makes up for its ludicrous plot by letting its young female cast have a field day as they indulge their dark fantasies. Fairuza Balk is enjoyable as the most wicked of the witches, and is therefore the focus of the film's most dazzling special effects. But it's Neve Campbell from television'sParty of Fivewho madeThe Crafta modest box-office hit, just before she became her generation's fright-movie favourite inScreamand its popular sequel.--Jeff Shannon

A story of witchcraft and revenge.
Four girls Nancy, Sarah, Bonnie and Rachelle who don,t quite fit in at their strict catholic school.
The four girls come to terms with their powers and as they grow the evil released soon becomes too much for them to control and people around them will soon begin to suffer .
The film surprised me at being actually very good. the acting was again ... ...at at good pace and the ending was expected.
Nothing new in this film but it delivered a watchable film.
Worth your time if it comes on TV.

by Andrew Fleming who also did the movie 'Dick' (about Richard Nixon) and the TV series 'Grosse Point'. To date, this is by far his best piece of work.
With Halloween being this weekend it's a bit of a shame E4 couldn't have scheduled this movie sooner, but I think I'll still watch it... that's if I haven't put the DVD on before then!
If you're not doing anything else this Friday then definitely catch it on the TV, if you don't like it you can switch it off and you haven't lost any money! Definitely watch this movie if you enjoyed 'Practical Magic'.
Update - DVD extras: As expected I've found my collector's edition DVD and I'm going to watch it tonight. Thought I'd let you know what's on the DVD.

I did have a few problems finding this on DVD in high streets stores although Virgin did say they would order it in at a ridiculous price. I managed to get mine of Amazon for £4.13 although it is now available for £3.97 (Collectors Edition) or on Play.com (£5 including delivery).
I have heard that there will be a sequel 'Craft 2' but it will go straight to DVD in 2008. Whether or not this is the case or not I am not sure. I did think when I saw the film that it was ...
The Craft.
***********
~Introduction~
The story is about four girls at a Catholic school, who don't quite fit in.
~The Movie~
The film is basically about witchcraft, though it seems a little inaccurate in parts, probably to make it easier to film.
The main characters are:
Nancy who lives in a trailer with her alcoholic mother and abusive step-dad.
Sarah who is plagued with guilt since the death of her mother.
Bonnie who was burned as a child and so hates her body.
And Rachelle who is constantly being bullied and wants to get even.
Put all 4 together add in some witch craft and something awful is going to happen. But not necessarily just to the other people around them.
The film follows them, as the quartet firstly embrace their powers and then become seduced by 'the dark side'.
It turns out that Sarah is the natural ...

Four teenage girls, outsiders in their clique-ridden religious school, find an outlet for their pent-up hostilities when they form a supernatural coven. Armed with the power of the craft, these novice witches gleefully take vengeance on their enemies, but ultimately their indiscriminate use of power catches up to them.
