Prime Video has welcomed a beloved 90s cult classic that’s ideal for devotees of series such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Winx Saga.
The picture originally debuted in 1996 and became an unexpected success, generating $6.7 million during its opening weekend at cinemas.
The teenage horror flick secured the MTV Movie Award for Best Fight and developed a devoted fanbase in the years after its debut.
A follow-up, The Craft: Legacy, arrived in October 2020, featuring several original cast members in cameo roles.
The movie in question is The Craft, which centres on Sarah Bailey (portrayed by Robin Tunney), a troubled teenager possessing extraordinary abilities.
At her fresh school, she befriends three misfit girls allegedly practising witchcraft, who venerate a mighty earth goddess they name Manon.
Nevertheless, as they seek powers for their own selfish purposes, they face terrible repercussions.
The cast also features Fairuza Balk as Nancy Downs, Neve Campbell as Bonnie Harper and Rachel True as Rochelle Zimmerman.
Writing on IMDb to express their views about the picture, MadBadMovieman praised it as « suspenseful and creepy ».
They continued: « Not a really new story about Witch Craft among girl friends but enough twists and surprizes and effects to rise above most. Very well done by all Especially Robin and Fairuza. Very Good effects. Good vs. Evil conflict really kept you in the movie. Great to see in a theater or on a big screen. »
Alicekeymer also left a glowing review, stating: « The great thing about The Craft is that it reminds me of those 80’s horror movies I used to watch as a kid.
« It’s got suspense and thrills, which so few horror films have had in recent years. I would recommend it to anyone. I can’t find a thing wrong with this movie, rent it now, trust me you won’t regret it. »
Davispittman labelled it « much better than the average teen flick », adding: « The craft is a much better than average teenage Wiccan thriller. It contains very good performances by all the actors, including Neve Campbell.
« The film has excellent special effects. And the plot summary is well constructed and a lot better than I expected. The main thing about this movie is that it is very entertaining and fun to watch.
« I love all the things that happen in the movie and especially the ending. »
The Craft is available to watch on Prime Video
