Admit it! You thought I'd forgotten about my Amazon Friday feature. No, I still intend to continue with it, despite having suspended it since November. I also want to continue with my Disney Wednesday and Netflix Thursday features. I have an ever growing list of films on Disney Plus that I want to watch, not quite so many on Netflix, but I'm giving priority to my True Stories marathon. I'll just sneak an occasional film in when I have time to watch two films in one day. I'm busy as a full time baby sitter, so it probably won't be too often.
"Seance" is a film about a girl called Camille Meadows who enrols in an exclusive private school for girls, Edelvine Academy. A place has become free after a girl died following a seance. She fell out of her window, and her death was ruled an accident, but was it really suicide, or even murder?
Soon the girls are doing it again. They hold another seance to speak to their dead friend, to ask how she died. After the seance another girl dies. What's wrong with those girls? They don't learn from their mistakes. They continue to hold seances, and after each seance there's another death.
There's nothing original about the film. It's the same sort of supernatural tale that's been told many times before. The director should at least have capitalised on the abundance of pretty girls. Shorter skirts or glimpses of nudity. The nudity wouldn't even have been gratuitous, it would have made sense. The girls all go to bed at night fully clothed, so that when there's a loud noise we don't see anything when they jump out of bed. That's just silly.
"Seance" was heavily promoted at last year's Fantasy Film Festival, but it's gone straight to video. It's destined to be forgotten.
