This one sucks on so many levels it's hard to describe. The story surrounds a bunch of teenagers having group therapy on a Caribbean island. They all have the same dream of a witch being burned alive by some guys in hoods. Now why did I even give it 1 goblin head? There are three reasons.First the main guy from the dream. I haven't seen such a stupid expression for a long time. Then the first killing. This scene is remarkably stupid and in my opinion the only interesting scene in the movie. With sounds of heartbeat in the background we see a guy in underwear walking around dark places for a few minutes and then getting his heart pulled out. You can even see blood coming from other directions. Great stuff. Finally the last factor. A monumental movie montage of flashbacks featuring scenes from the whole movie up to that point and a group of badly dressed youngsters walking on the beach accompanied by very disgusting rave-pop-techno music. It lasts 2 minutes. Astounding. I think the dream flashbacks appear at least 100 times during the film, but this scene tops it off. If you're in need of completely useless flashbacks go see this movie. I was amazed.After watching it the second time with a can in case I get an urge to vomit, a deep realization of how bad were the story and ending came to mind. "Your love is pure, you can save Angela," says the female doctor to the good guy. You can not imagine the tone of her voice saying that line. Shocking. Just like when at the ending we see Angela getting green eyes. Hope they make a sequel.I really tried to find this entertaining but nope it just plain blows some major gas. The killings are notoriously forgettable with blood spurting all over the victim without known reason. I know we all love to see good amounts of blood in movies but believe me it's hardly satisfying here. Just remembered one good scene when Angela is drinking Tequila. Oh the face, oh my god.The effects are what's to be expected in cheap video production so I won't venture there. Music? Where's the vomit can... Hmmm what about the therapy sessions? I actually liked their stupidity. The dialogues are a league of their own especially during the therapy. Cutter is definitely the best character there. A steroid mass without a brain. Got my hopes high for nothing when I thought there would be more dialogue with him. Damn.I have no more energy to write about this piece of garbage any more. It's bad but not fun. Don't watch this unless for some masochistic reason like I did. 2 times people. Maybe I should go for some Caribbean therapy.Originally written for http://www.bad-good.org

Total utter CRAP! If this was only a porno, it might have been a little interesting to watch. First of all a movie with a title like this should deliver, which it does not. It's hard to feel slightly passionate about this project, for calling it a movie would be an overstatement. This is too stupid and dumb, how is it possible to make something this bad!?! The acting is flat and not very convincing. Combine this with a story so terrible, that it must have been written by someone on some kind of wonder drug, with awful directing, you get this lovely soup of rubbish and crap. After 40 minutes of watching the movie, oh the horror, I found out that there were 40 minutes left, when will this end? And what is up with the misplaced dance music and totally unnecessary flashback montage? I'm having a really hard time understanding this movie. I'll sue, cause this is America, and in America, if something sucks, you're supposed to be able to get your money back! why oh why

Every now and then, I see a film advertised in the TV guide that I'll see for no other reason than the title sounds interesting. Believe it or not, I thought that 'Witches of the Caribbean' sounded interesting. I'm a fan of witch related films, as they often make for good horror and the Caribbean setting was leading me to believe that this might offer something in the way of originality. Any hopes I had for the movie were quickly dashed, however, when I found out that the film was directed by David DeCoteau; a man that has made a whole host of straight-to-video rubbish, including the awesomely bad 'Wolves of Wall Street'. Really, though, all I wanted from this film was some decent magic done by some hot Goth girls in a nice setting. It's safe to say, however, that I didn't even get that. What I did get is a severely under imaginative movie with a cast that is about as impressive as the film's setting - which looks more like a UK holiday resort on a bad day than the Caribbean.The plot stinks of "cant be bothered" and follows the dull and overly familiar idea of a witch being burnt at the stake, only to be reincarnated centuries later. Not that there's a big problem with this sort of plot; several films, such as Mario Bava's Black Sunday and Roger Corman's The Haunted Palace have took that theme and made it work; but both of those movies had something about them, whereas this one clearly does not. The cast of actors doesn't help the film in it's bid to be successful, as none of them stand out enough to make any kind of lasting impression. The only impression made on any level is just that the actors are irritating; the lead witch, Nicole Marie Monica, being the foremost irritating member of the cast. The special effects are just as bad as the rest of the film, and once again feel like whoever was in charge had something more important on their mind. The awful ending tops off what is a bad movie on the whole and I can tell that if you ever see this film in your TV guide and think it might be worth a watch...think again.

The Bad News. The scene at the beginning showing a hunk in boxer briefs climbing out of a swimming pool and wondering around for 10 minutes (investigating sounds etc) is the only 'DeCoteau moment' you ladies, or guys get in this bore-a-thon.The Good News. At least the hunk was at the start! The movie's an absolute chore to sit through. I'll skip the plot, see it regurgitated in all the other posts.Apart from being robbed of any decent 'money' shots (ala Voodoo Academy) DeCoteau makes us sit through several flashbacks to the opening witch hunt scene which are so irritating cut you'll be begging for that epileptic seizure.You want gore? Too bad. A couple of hearts ripped from fully clothed victims is all you get - and I loved the blood being sprayed on the victims faces - just like the kills in 'Talisman'.You want more flashbacks? How about Cheesy pop music accompanied by flashbacks to events earlier on in the film.The only surprise I got from this movie was the role reversal. Usually in DeCoteau's films it's a guy becoming involved in a pact. Here it's a girl.I Give it 0ne outta ten. Max
