Necromancer - Vingança do Inferno

While I am all for cheesy 80s horror movies and taking movies for what they aim to do and not comparing them with classic films, this one just doesn't cut it. I guess some find the main actress to be attractive, I don't. Unfortunately she is the only one who several nude scenes. The problem of course is that when all the victims are male there is not possibility of of having more female characters to put in the nude. The special effects are not very good even for the standards of the time, nor is there any suspense or excitement. The idea is not bad overall, a supernatural revenge thriller. However, the resolution of it all is just too forced and unsatisfying. The performances are atrocious except for Charles DeLonge.

I have read the other reviews and I just did not think this movie was as bad as many of the others are saying. No this is not a great cinematic success and yes a lot of this has been seen before. However, for this type of movie it was at least as good as many other B movies made during that same time. I do not understand how one reviewer can say that Elizabeth Kaitan in not good looking.

The story is basically about a women who gets raped at night in a collage classroom by guys she knows from school. The next day she confides what happened to a friend and instead of going to the police, they see this ad and go to this woman who turns out to be a demon. I actually think this would have been a better movie if they eliminated the demon part and just had the victim seek revenge, but then this would really be another "I spit on your grave"

Not a great movie but I think it is certainly worth a look.

This whole affair spells amateurish, and I'm not really talking about the acting. I last saw this film, over 15 years ago, and I had seen 14 years before that, and when watching it this time, didn't realize how bad this really was. The movie has a couple of moments of bloodletting, one nasty scene near the finale. Notice how I didn't say shock bloodletting, cause the blood looked so fake, one bathroom scene of squirting spraying blood, on one of our nasty rapists, painfully evident of this. Free flowing haired Kaitan is hot stuff. She plays an acting student, in the wrong place at the wrong time, unwittingly, stumbling upon three low life campus boys stealing exam papers. If to make sure she doesn't talk, and to be sexually satisfied, two of em' give her a nice ole raping. Her friend, encourages her to see this devil witch who can put spells on those who do wrong, a solution, to mild revenge seeking Kaitan, never thinking they'll die, or be killed by a cloned, yet sexual seeking nude Kaitan. If only she put a spell on this movie, and made it disappear. Her boyfriend a jealous, clean cut guy, dumb as daisies, so he's no real help. This is a sloppy horror, from a make it, up as you go script, with a a couple of stilted acting moments, character's responses, etc. The fitting music score is kind of creepy but clumsy too. The head rapist is a real piece of..... The horny acting professor who of course has the hots for Kaitan, and was originally her older lover, recites a ever popular Hamlet piece, that being the standout moment, so the film's got a bit of cheek. The nerdy, slicked haired geek, who warns Kaitan is fun to watch too. Below average horror at best.

I'm not a very critical person, at least when comparing myself to those who regularly review movies but I found myself painfully aware of watching acting. These actors were not able to suspend my disbelief for even a short time. The actors seem stiff and fake. The script didn't do any favors for the cast either. I really have to be honest here and recommend that everyone is better off staying far away from this abomination!

After pretty blonde drama student Julie (Elizabeth Kaitan) is raped by a trio of privileged sleazeballs, she pays a visit to a necromancer (Lois Masten Ewing) who summons a shape-shifting demon to take revenge. When the demon starts killing those who have wronged her, Julie has a change of heart and accepts help from magic obsessed weirdo Ernest (Waide Aaron Riddle).

Cheap as chips supernatural rape revenge flick Necromancer is a fairly dreadful straight-to-video bottom shelf filler, with weak performances and woeful visual effects (the demon's eyes are hilarious), the only positives being some topless nudity from its shapely star Kaitan, and one gory scene at the very end.

The remainder of the film is bloodless (unless you count the watery red stuff that erupts from the world's ugliest bathroom), totally devoid of scares, and bereft of originality. Russ Tamblyn puts in a passable turn as pervy drama teacher Charles, who abuses his position to get laid, but the majority of the cast are plain bad (and what's with those green 'horns' in Ernest's hair?).

Oh, and if you're ever called upon by a friend to help her defeat a demon of vengeance, please blow out any lit candles in your house before you leave.
