Coven

What this is, is a supernatural fantasy with softcore porn mixed in. And it sucks. I have no idea of to whom is this made for? Teenage boys in the 90's before internet? Obviously this is a rip off of an another supernatural fantasy movie made for teen boys way back and way better. There is no reason for anybody to watch this horrible movie. It is very bad and would of been bad even in the early 90's when it at least would of filled some purpose for the teen boys.

Sounds are bad, acting is bad, special effects are bad, casting is bad (the teachers seem younger then the students) and the story is bad.

Killing off the best looking witch in the first 10 mins pretty much bummed me out for the rest of it. Might be enjoyable by a few lesbians.

Now, I am not sure if it was intentional or fully coincidental, but writer Lizze Gordon's 2020 movie "Coven" felt an awful lot like the 1996 movie "The Craft". Was it a tribute? Sort of a reboot? A rip off? Coincidental? I have no idea.

But I do know, however, that "Coven" was not having the same impact or level of entertainment as the 1996 movie had. Sure, the 2020 movie "Coven" from director Margaret Malandruccolo was watchable, but it was by no means an outstanding movie.

The concept of the storyline was adequate. But it just felt a bit too cliché, and too much off a rip off of the 1996 movie in my opinion. And that made this 2020 movie suffer. Sure, if you haven't seen the 1996 movie "The Craft", then I am sure you'll find "Coven" to be rather good. However, if you have seen the 1996 movie, then this 2020 movie just felt like a cup of lukewarm, watered down tea.

The special effects in the movie were adequate, although it felt somewhat comical at times from the way that the witches were tossing about their magical powers. But at least the CGI effects were proper and nice enough to look at.

One thing I don't understand is why director Margaret Malandruccolo felt that she had to show so many scenes with either scantily clad women or showing off naked breasts. It did very little to serve the movie in a manner to take it serious. If the director had opted for another approach, it would have felt more like a proper movie, instead of a pseudo-sleazy late teenage movie project.

I managed to sit through the entire movie, but I weren't overly entertained. Sure, the movie was watchable for what it was, but you shouldn't get your hopes up for this movie.

My rating of "Coven" lands on a less than mediocre four out of ten stars.

Come on.... this was such a blatant attempt at ripping off the craft ... you guys didn't try very hard. It was hilariously awful!

What does the craft have a monopoly on a movie bout girl witches? Oh brother, gimme a break, gimme a break, break me off a piece the whining little comment bar. We are 100yrs into movies being made. I still want witch movies made, vampire movies made, werewolf, slasher and ghosts. I love all genres but am big horror guy. Sry but I'm not naive enough to think anything new coming out isn't gonna have a little bit of that been there seen that feel. Doesn't mean it's exactly the same & the actors are different and characters are different so even if they were exactly the same plots and storyline, guess what, different people would be experiencing it cuz it's new characters. And we smart enough to know that even if something seems similar, there's differences if you open your eyes!!!! So tired of peeps saying rip off, or well that was original hahaha. Get outta here with that expectation after millions of movies have literally been made. Seriously I swear I don't know what some people expect. I see all these ones handed out on horror movies I've seen and tho Peeps don't Have to agree with my rating there really are those movies you know werent bad but we're far from good. They were just meh and most peeps give it that -3-6 range but u always have to have clowns who wanna hand ones out like sat down & expected best picture & best actor & best score and best cinematography and best supporting Actress and all that & the movie will actually be a Low budget thriller lmao. Be more realistic on what to expect in regards to what your watching & rate accordingly. Baffles me that people rate movies without scaling them in terms of genre & time period. For instance I'll rate 1960s Horror movies Comparing them to each other and 1980s comedies with other movies of the time period and genre. So for a movie around this time period considering it's horror and not up for an Oscar This movie was just ok. If you like the show the secret circle or movies like the CRAFT, the covenant, little witches(lowEr budget But wasn't terrible & just meh) you'll enjoy this I'm sure.
