Nigromancia

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.

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!

Okay,this film started out OK.....it was pretty spooky, and gave you the feel of actually being there,and being in that gypsies little baracade.... I thought cool,and it was an OK movie... Why you wander??Well...Elizabeth Cayton,gives a surpisingly great performance,and hell yeah blonde suites her fine, anyways back to the subject,as the film progresses,and the revenge begins to take place,the shower and bedroom scene are interesting,but you wouldnt believe what the demon looks like,ill give you a little hint,it looks like Elmo with computer digitized,really fake green eyes,thats when i burst in tears from laughing... Then the film kinda gets back to a serious verve,as she gets help from Ernest,and he well...doesnt quiet make it! Why i liked it??Cause the Elmo look alike didnt turn up,it was the gypsy herself... The death scenes were mostly really sad shadow deaths,one was really disturbing,that elmo thing was practically busting his balls! the film than progresses to where it is Cayton VS Evil Cayton,and its a very sadistic fight,where they just strangle each other,and the hardcore death appears........but which Cayton is it???Remotely interested??Go watch it.. Its a great film to watch late at night alone,and ignore the monster,just keep in the basis of the demon and witchery and you should quiet enjoy it!

Is it worth the rent? Well...its worth the try,you either like it or not,and to me i liked it,kinda borderline,but i recommend you check it out!

Is it Something you can watch over and over again?? Well....No,not really,2 times should be enough,then you'd be bored outta your boots!

Rating out of 10? Well fairly confusing,and pathetic special effects,good acting,and some great nude scenes,and you can get a few chills,i repeat a very few.

5 out of 10

My review was written in March 1989 after watching the film on Forum video cassette.

Modest horror pic uses the ever-popular revenge motif for this supernatural tale bowing domestically in video stores.

Attractive, round-faced Elizabeth Kaitan oplines (in her biggest role to date) as an acting student who's gang-raped by classmates but blackmailed to avoid reporting it.

Her roommate talks her into answering a "revenge" adi in the paper.

Lois Masten is the gypsy-styled necromancer who places these ads. She's in touch with the devil and uses a client's revenge request as license to go hog wild killing people, with the hapless instigator unable to stop her. In Kaitan's case, Masten demonically assumes Kaitan's form, seduces the rapists and then offs them (with minimal makeup and gore effects).

Okay acting saves this low-budgeter, which spotlights Kaitan's beauty in a multiple role. Russ Tamblyn has fun as her lecherous, Shakespeare-spoutin acting performance.

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.
