Satan's School for Girls Reviews
funny movie, horrible quality dvd
As someone else noted, the picture quality on this dvd is quite horrendous. It does look like a very badly worn film reel. I found the sound okay for a made for tv movie from the 70's, though, and never had difficulty understanding the dialogue.
The real reason to get this, obviously, is for its high camp value. Even though some of the actors are decent, the overall production makes the entire thing silly. You gotta love the girls in hysteria scenes (the one before the first "suicide" and the second after the rat class). The score is so over the top it could be used in a parody.
I do remember seeing this on tv a lot in the 70's, late at night, but this is the second "Satan" film I have purchased and I still don't think I've found the one I'm really looking for. Does anyone remember one that also features a lot of teenage girls where the girls go out to some sort of altar and chant Satanic phrases? Maybe I'm just combining Yvonne DeCarlo's chanting in "Satan's Cheerleaders" with the girls in this film, but I don't think so.
Classic Cult Camp
This movie is a hoot! I remember seeing it when it originally aired in the early 70's. The DVD brought back a lot of memories for me. The campy dialogue, over-the-top performances from some of the actors, the "cheesey" feel that all those movie of the week films had back then. I'd also forgotten that the movie of the week format was only 90 minutes long as well. Some other reviews have complained about the quality of the DVD. I personally think the poor quality actually adds to the campiness of the movie. That's the way those movies were shown back then. Watching the DVD is like watching the movie the way it originally aired. I think it was a smart move not to "remaster" the quality of the film for the DVD. The grainey look just adds to it's charm. For any Charlie's Angels fans, it's also fun to see Kate Jackson and Cheryl Ladd working together prior to earning their wings. I remember Kate Jackson appearing in the movie but had no idea that Cheryl Ladd was in it as well. I was actually surprised her role was a big as it was, since I didn't remember her at all. For any fan of camp trash, this movie is a must have, so don't let all those complaints about the poor quality of the DVD scare you off. That is actually one of this DVD's biggest assets.
