Les sorcières des Caraïbes

Being wiccan myself I somewhat look forward to good witch movies and to say the least this was pure crap. If I'd known this was a weak independent movie with almost no budget I would have passed on it. As seeing as the title caught my attention I decided to give it a try.

The acting was horrible and you can almost smell the director attempt to pull off the "hot Gothic witch" vibe from The Craft during the beach walk scene that ended up ( like the last reviewer said) a 5 min music video of them walking across the beach. Not to mention the lead witch was breath-taking UGLY! I have so many bad things to say about this movie, and the ending didn't make a lick of sense. All I have to say, if you are looking for a good horror flick this isn't it. Don't watch it on TV, don't even rent it from netflick ( like I did), its is just really bad.

I normally enjoy a movie in this genre, even if the quality lacks a little (like it usually does). But as B-movies come and go, you need to further down the alphabet to classify this one.

The script, choreography, acting look like they've been directed by a teenager, one without a lot of talent. Where to start... silly scene transitions, people walking into the viewer and out of it after they delivered their lines which makes it look like a kindergarten stage play, lame special fx and flashbacks/reminders that are disturbing if you consider the level of intelligence they must have been aimed at. But it's not quite bad enough to be funny either.

The term 'spoilers' does not apply for this movie: you should avoid it like the plague.

(2004) Witches Of The Caribbean HORROR

Straight-to-rental cheap horror flick which is basically a very poor carbon copy of the much bigger budgeted of "The Craft" including the main character, who appears to be a look-a-like of Neve Campbell! Movie centers on a group of teenagers sent to the Caribbean because they all have similar dreams of a past life incident involving witch burning and cults and the psychologist whose making attempts to overcome it! It is neither scary nor is it original with some of the worst special effects and acting imaginable! One can get get better entertainment from TV. 1/2 star.

Total utter CRAP! If this was only a porno, it might have been a little interesting to watch. First of all a movie with a title like this should deliver, which it does not. It's hard to feel slightly passionate about this project, for calling it a movie would be an overstatement. This is too stupid and dumb, how is it possible to make something this bad!?!

The acting is flat and not very convincing. Combine this with a story so terrible, that it must have been written by someone on some kind of wonder drug, with awful directing, you get this lovely soup of rubbish and crap. After 40 minutes of watching the movie, oh the horror, I found out that there were 40 minutes left, when will this end? And what is up with the misplaced dance music and totally unnecessary flashback montage? I'm having a really hard time understanding this movie. I'll sue, cause this is America, and in America, if something sucks, you're supposed to be able to get your money back!

why oh why

Some troubled youths stay on a Caribbean island with a counselor, and they all have dreams about a witch who had been burnt to death there years earlier. One of them is a witch, though for some reason people insist on saying that she "says" she's a witch or "believes" she's a witch, which is silly.

There's little to recommend this at all. It's terribly dull. Endless conversations that serve no purpose. Scenes in which there's a montage of scenes which came earlier, which serve no purpose in being repeated except to pad out the running time. The guys take their shirts off more than once. The ladies don't. A bad movie like this needs gratuitous nudity; that doesn't make the movie better particularly, it just makes it a bad movie with nudity, which is generally preferable to a bad movie without it.

There are some apparent deaths in which hearts are grabbed out of the chest. Somehow, this creates huge spurts of blood that go all over the face of the now heartless person. Somehow, these people are able to scream well after their hearts are ripped out. I suppose that's the power of witchcraft.

Some of the powers of witchcraft, incidentally, are depicted by the use of green light. Very cheesy. It either shoots out of objects hitting people, or makes eyes glow or whatnot.

Supposedly this was shot on the Turks and Caicos Islands, a UK territory that had been part of their Jamaican colony. However, the locations are wasted so much they might as well have shot it on the California coast and pretended it was the Caribbean.
