Summary: Middling fare, but certainly not unenjoyable.
Review: A social teen outcast (played by Winona Ryder look-a-like Rainbow Harvest) discovers a mirror in her room that gives her special powers, which she proceeds to use violently on her taunting classmates. This supernatural horror/thriller takes way too long to really get going, but is pretty entertaining for the last forty or so minutes. Despite a few very silly moments and a baffling ending, there's enough blood, suspense, and nudity to satisfy horror fans looking for a quick fix.
** 1/2 out of *****

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the greatest horror movies ever!!!!!!
Review: If you really want to be scared, and your not afraid of the dark, you must see this movie. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Director Sargenti did a fabulous job. I thought the acting was great. You will hope this movie never ends.

Summary: very enjoyable sleeper
Review: MIRROR MIRROR is a rip off of every teen angst movie you've ever seen, mostly CARRIE & THE FURY, and it's all the more enjoyable for it. Director Sargenti offers up this fluff horror piece about a shy "goth" girl named Megan (Rainbow Harvest) who moves to a new school filled with your expected bitchy cheerleaders and obnoxious jocks. The class sweetheart Nikki (Kristen Datillo) makes "nice" with Megan and tries to help her join the popularity club, but it backfires repeatedly. Lucky for Megan, and no one else, she finds a magic mirror which empowers her with the ability to create "Fury" on her enemies through nose bleeds, burnings, drowings, and the ability to project demons in the form of her classmates to carry on murderous deeds.

The film moves quickly, has an authentically eerie look thanks to the cast and settings always being dressed in shades of blue & green, and offers of some good suspense. And then there's the cast to die for: Yvonne DeCarlo, Karen Black, Ricky Paull Golden, William Sanderson, Charlie Spradling... and more. For a fun time with fluffy scares and some decent monster make up, check it out... but skip the lame sequels.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Smart, intelligent horror
Review: This is a low budget but very well done horror movie about a demonic mirror.

It has great music and a real sense of atmosphere. The director does great work with slow motion and interesting use of sound effects.

The well-written smart script also has some nice deadpan humour: you have to see Charleen's school president campaign ad to believe it.

The look of the film is creepy, the school bullies Kim and Charleen are horribly nasty (as well as the best characters in the film) and the ending is just WOW. I was sorry to see this film end.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Awesome flick and Rainbow Harvest is a babe
Review: This is another one of those movies where the lesson learned is don't make fun of the different. Rainbow Harvest plays Megan, a goth-type girl from LA. Her new schoolmates tease and torment her, but she befriends a girl named Nikki.

In Megan's new house is a mirror which gives her powers. What she doesn't know is that the demon inside begins to control her and that's when the real trouble starts. Megan has fun at first by having the mirror kill a would-be boyfriend, a big boobed class president, and the nosy antique lady. But when she loses control and attacks Nikki and drowns her boyfriend, things go downhill for Megan from there.

The ending is a bit strange because Nikki goes back in time to the become the original owner of the mirror, a witch who killed her sister. Now she is back in that age and sees that she has stabbed Megan in the same way.

A few laughs, a few frights, some good bloody scenes, and even a MILF. What more could you want on a Saturday night at three in the morning?



Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better watch out
Review: you will enjoy this movie. A true "B" movie of the 80's but it's fun watching Rainbow Harvest's payback to the "Big Shots" of those infamous high school days. Like I said just a fun little flick to watch. So buy it and enjoy!!!!

Summary: Limited color palette
Review: Yvonne DeCarlo (of Munster's fame) and Karen Black in the same
movie...not bad! However, it gets rather distracting that the
only colors favored in the movie are blue or green (other than
the goth black). After awhile, you focus only on all the blue.
Blue towels, a blue phone, blue clothes of every possible pattern
and shade. Is there symbolism in this blue vs. black? I think
all the blue/green hospital colors are there to provide a
contrast to the red blood. Very tiring to watch. Another
distraction: Karen Black's wigs. Add in some full backside
nudity from Charley Spradling as Charleen.
