Review of Coven

Coven (2000)
1/10
Pointless drivel
21 January 2003
Luckily, this was one of the special features on the "American Movie" DVD, and I didn't have to rent this movie separately, because to spend one cent on it would be a waste. It's funny, because in "AM," Mark talks about how he was planning to sell the video of "Coven" for $14.99 and expect to receive profits from the buyers of the video. Haha, fat chance. If the movie made any profits, it's because Mark himself bought copies of it. The lighting is horrible. At points, the characters are practically shadows. It's just an incoherent mess of a movie that must've been a labor of love for Mark, but for us it's simply a labor. I like watching low-budget student and independent films, because even if they're just halfway decent, I feel inspired by them. But "Coven" doesn't inspire me one bit. I have classmates in one of my media classes, who did a much better job making and editing a movie in a couple weeks than he did in a series of years.

My score: 1 (out of 10)
