At her new school, she makes friends with a trio of outcast girls rumoured to be witches, who worship a powerful earth deity they called Manon.

However, as they pursue powers for their own personal gain, they experience dire consequences.

The film also stars Fairuza Balk as Nancy Downs, Neve Campbell as Bonnie Harper and Rachel True as Rochelle Zimmerman.

Taking to IMDb to share their thoughts on the film, MadBadMovieman hailed it “suspenseful and creepy”.

They added: “Not a really new story about Witch Craft among girl friends but enough twists and surprizes and effects to rise above most. Very well done by all Especially Robin and Fairuza. Very Good effects. Good vs. Evil conflict really kept you in the movie. Great to see in a theater or on a big screen.”

The Craft gained a cult following

Alicekeymer also left a positive review, sharing: “The great thing about The Craft is that it reminds me of those 80’s horror movies I used to watch as a kid.

“It’s got suspense and thrills, which so few horror films have had in recent years. I would recommend it to anyone. I can’t find a thing wrong with this movie, rent it now, trust me you won’t regret it.”

Davispittman branded it “much better than the average teen flick”, sharing: “The craft is a much better than average teenage Wiccan thriller. It contains very good performances by all the actors, including Neve Campbell.

“The film has excellent special effects. And the plot summary is well constructed and a lot better than I expected. The main thing about this movie is that it is very entertaining and fun to watch.

“I love all the things that happen in the movie and especially the ending.”
