Amazon.co.uk Review If iBuffy the Vampire Slayer/i represents the lighter side of high school as a macabre experience, here's a movie that asks the burning question, "What happens when angst-ridden teenagers develop supernatural powers?" More to the point, how do four outcast teenaged witches handle their ability to cast wicked spells on the taunting classmates who've nicknamed them "The Bitches of Eastwick"? The answer, of course, is "don't get mad, get even." That's about all there is to this terminally silly movie, which makes up for its ludicrous plot by letting its young female cast have a field day as they indulge their dark fantasies. Fairuza Balk is enjoyable as the most wicked of the witches, and is therefore the focus of the film's most dazzling special effects. But it's Neve Campbell from television's iParty of Five/i who made iThe Craft/i a modest box-office hit, just before she became her generation's fright-movie favourite in iScream/i and its popular sequel. i--Jeff Shannon/i

Amazing March 26, 2004 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I love this film it was one of the first videos I bought for myself, after I bought it, it stayed in my video player for like 3 months. I watched it so much and I still do, If you like films with occult themes this is for you. A must have for any one interested in witchcraft or Wicca.

A true to life portrayal of witches, genius. September 21, 2002 11 out of 13 found this review helpful
Some, who have not already veiwed this movie, may think it is the typical portrayal of witches, broomsticks, hats, cauldrons etc. Until now it seemed it was beyond film makers to include REAL witches in their movies, however The Craft couldn't be closer to the truth.br It tells the tale of four messed up teenages who turn their hand to witchcraft, to try and solve all their problems. When Sarah Robin Tunney arrives at the girl's school the three witches, Nancy (Fairuza Balk), Bonnie (Neve Campbell) and Rochelle (Rachael True), just know she is the fourth witch to complete the circle, Earth, Air, Fire and Water...br This film is a real gem, not only is it great for people new to witchcraft it also hosts a terrific, believable cast who make the movie seem real. The effects are not over the top but are still fantastic. This film is not to be missed and especialy not on DVD, with two cut scenes, a behind the scenes featurette and scene selections The Craft just gets better!
One of the best DVD's out there July 27, 2001 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
If you've seen this film before, this DVD is well worth thinking about. The extra features include a 'Making of' and deleted scenes, both of which are brilliant. The film itself is a masterpiece, with outstanding performances from all the actors. This film has incredible depth, and the running commentary on this DVD gives you has loads of background info, an insight into the special effects (some of which are incredible to watch) and background information on how particular scenes were shot. Not many films have attempted storylines like this, and none of them feel as authentic as The Craft. It is wonderfully dark, daringly insightful and startlingly original, with some memorable scenes and subtle effects that enhance the overall feeling of this film. If you own a DVD player and you're looking for a brilliant DVD to play on it, The Craft is your best bet. Don't settle for VHS, theres simply so much you miss out on. Its definetly one of the best DVDs I own!
This film is really cool May 6, 2000 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really liked this film, it sort of reminded me of Clueless except for the whole witchcraft thing. Robin Tunney plays a really good role and Fairuza Balk is brilliant, especially the fight at the end. This film contains a lot of good special effects (e.g. when Fairuza Balks' fingers turn to snakes), but if you hate bugs and snakes, it'll freak you out!
