A persistent nightmare about a 16th century sorceress burned to death on a beach sends 17-year-old Angela looking for enlightenment at a fortnight retreat on a beautiful Caribbean isle. All the teens at the gathering are part of Angela's inexplicable dream, and when professed witch Bethany begins luring others into her coven, Angela slowly discovers the truth in this bloody horror tale with an exotic twist.

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.

'witchcraft with the power to induce sleep; film-making that makes you want to claw out your eyes'. Just wanted to quote that remark. This movie is a true horror. In this case, that's not a compliment. Horrible special effects and talentless actresses/actors. Every horror movie has its innocent victims. In this case, the innocent victims aren't on screen. They are the ones watching this crap(a.k.a 'the innocent viewer'). It's almost like a cheap porn movie, with all the good parts cut out. So, here's what I'm trying to say. Don't expect anything from this piece of crap, don't waste any money on it. You should only go and watch it in a drugged sort of state or if you're in a particularly humorous mood.

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.

The Bad News. The scene at the beginning showing a hunk in boxer briefs climbing out of a swimming pool and wondering around for 10 minutes (investigating sounds etc) is the only 'DeCoteau moment' you ladies, or guys get in this bore-a-thon.The Good News. At least the hunk was at the start! The movie's an absolute chore to sit through. I'll skip the plot, see it regurgitated in all the other posts.Apart from being robbed of any decent 'money' shots (ala Voodoo Academy) DeCoteau makes us sit through several flashbacks to the opening witch hunt scene which are so irritating cut you'll be begging for that epileptic seizure.You want gore? Too bad. A couple of hearts ripped from fully clothed victims is all you get - and I loved the blood being sprayed on the victims faces - just like the kills in 'Talisman'.You want more flashbacks? How about Cheesy pop music accompanied by flashbacks to events earlier on in the film.The only surprise I got from this movie was the role reversal. Usually in DeCoteau's films it's a guy becoming involved in a pact. Here it's a girl.I Give it 0ne outta ten. Max
