Released to TV in 2000, "Satan's School for Girls" is a remake of the 1973 TV movie of the same name. The story revolves around a young woman (Shannen Doherty) who enrolls at an all-girls college in Massachusetts to investigate her sister's supposed suicide. She befriends some girls (Julie Benz, Taraji P. Henson & Mandy Schaffer) and becomes involved with a dude (Daniel Cosgrove) while investigating the witchcraft of some Goth chicks (e.g. Victoria Sanchez). Kate Jackson plays the Dean and Richard Joseph Paul a girl-crazy professor.While this is better than the underwhelming original version, it has its own flaws. Despite the TV budget, it starts out good and mysterious, which goes on for the better part of an hour, but then unravels into cartoony TV horror. Doherty is fine as the dispirited protagonist. While people complain about her dismal disposition it goes with the role. Sanchez stands out amongst the girls at the school, not to mention Schaffer. Despite this, the filmmakers generally drop the ball on the female front, considering the resources at their disposal (and I'm not talking' bout nudity or porn). The semi-sleazy professor is the creepiest character while Cosgrove is amiable as Doherty's boyfriend, but their sexual union seems premature and forced. Another thing I liked is a certain plot twist: You think the story's going one way and it suddenly changes. Of course, this is so common now it's no longer surprising.As far as the last 35 minutes go, it's tough to pull off satanic ritual sequences with a straight face, which is why Roman Polanski limited the satanic sequence in his "Rosemary's Baby" (1968) to a mere two minutes at the climax (not that I'm a fan of that one-dimensional movie in light of it being 99% drama in an old NYC apartment and 1% horror). Filmmakers have to be careful with these kinds of scenes or they become more laughable than spooky. So most of the first two acts rate a solid "B" or, at least, "B-", but the final act is weak. Still, it's worth seeing for the positives.The movie runs 87 minutes and was shot at John Abbott College and Montréal, Québec.GRADE: C+

This must be the WORST movie ever! SERIOUSLY! They didn`t even bother to add a plot...until the end (like "hurry up...come up with a plot, the movie is almost over...awh, this will do")But hey...it is so incredibly FUNNY! I want this in my DVD collection, to watch over and over again! Laugh at the bad bad bad lines, lack of plot, as mentioned, and the actors who are doing their worst effort ever. Not that former 90210 actors usually says quality, but they are far more talented in anything else they ever did! And what is better then a bad bad bad bad movie? except a good one off course. Nothing!Trust me...see this movie, if you dont like scary movies, this is the movie for you ( I am easily scared, you can take this) you will laugh and laugh.So, Aaron, you are kidding, right? Because, if you are...BRILLIANT! If you aren`t...go back to teen soaps!If there are anything you would like to say to me, please contact me, I like discussing movies.

When Beth's (Beth is a witch, but a good one.) sister, Jenny dies, the police think it's suicide. Beth knows that Jenny would never do such a thing, so she decides to go investigate the death by herself. Beth then enrolls at Fallbridge College, the same college where Jenny attended. Beths goes under a different name though, Karen. Whilst Beth is there, she finds out some dark secrets, including one about a secret cult group who call themselves, The Five, who want Beth to join the group as there fifth member. Satan's School For Girls stars, Shannen Doherty, Julie Benz, Daniel Cosgrove and Kate Jackson. They all give pretty good performances here.I expected to like Satan's School For Girls. as I usually always like these kind of movies and as expected I did enjoy it. The movie had a good plot which kept you interested all the way through and it didn't get boring at all. This is a good TV movie. It's a shame it didn't make it to the big screen though.

What a great movie! For once, a tv movie that doesn't pretend to be any more than it is: light-hearted entertainment. I felt that the actor's and actress's portrayals of their characters were right on. They all knew the movie was just meant to be in fun, and it looked as though they honestly enjoyed themselves while making the film.Aside- I would consider this to be the second in the Everyone Wants To Be Shannon Doherty series of movies (The first was the often rerun on VH1 flick Friends Till The End).
