The Craft (1996)
7/10
Enjoyable with great special effects . Great cast.

Warning: Spoilers
I'm not gonna bother with an analysis of the supernatural aspect of this movie, I'm not qualified and don't have the knowledge on this particular subject matter. What I can say is I have seen it several times and found it to be a good movie, both fascinating and enjoyable-also a bit scary at times-great special effects-also a great movie to watch in a group-anybody who hasn't seen this and is thinking of renting it should go for it-you will not be bored! I enjoyed very much, the creative special effects and I thought the movie was well acted and was both interesting and tension provoking at the same time.

my main problem was: SPOILERS:

Toward the end, this movie gets extremely difficult to watch in parts, which would be fine except the movie does not play like a thriller through much of it, so your a bit unprepared when it starts becoming truly sinister. The pacing also becomes noticeably slower toward the end, and I have to say, although I've seen this several times and always enjoyed it, I lose a lot of my enjoyment when it starts really getting into thriller territory. Still, this is a good movie for the reasons already mentioned and I'd recommend it. I'd give it a 7.5 out of 10.
