Tamara (2005)

Updated: Feb 24, 2023

My quick rating - 4.7/10 Sure, I only watched this because I have a friend who has a daughter named Tamara. Well, if she aspires to grow up being a sexy witch, then

this is the movie for her. A typical school of cool kids, that are not

cool in the slightest, set out to play a prank on the socially inept

shy girl, Tamara (Jenna Dewan). But unbeknownst to them, she also

practices witchcraft. Well, when they accidentally kill her and bury

her in the woods, she comes back to life to exact her revenge. (Bonus

points for the amusement of her walking into class the next day) So she

goes about this by basically controlling the minds of the kids to

perform her bidding. I'll leave it at they are rather tame methods,

so gore-movie hounds will not be all too excited. Granted her powers of

suggestion do lead to one of the more amusing things in the movie, but

I'll leave that for you to see. So of course there is her love

interest, which is her teacher (Matthew Marsden) and they are bound by

a spell to be together forever. In a well-paced 90-minute film, we get

to "forever" in just the right duration with a stupid ass ending that

really distracts from the fun the rest of the movie was. The acting was

pretty bad, but I really don't think they were shooting for any Oscars

here. (Originally reviewed on 09/03/2013) Nice little flick if you catch it on Starz or Vudu, beyondthat, I wouldn't any further than Amazon.
