Vito (nicely played by Rob Morrow) plans to kill beautiful witch Lia (the always perky and appealing Linda Blair), who Vito believes was responsible for placing a deadly curse on his mother.
While director Lizzie Borden keeps the rather muddled story moving along at a reasonable pace, Borden crucially fails to generate much in the way of any essential tension or atmosphere. Moreover, the briefly seen aged version of Lia rates as a lackluster monster while the sappy happy ending simply fizzles. Fortunately, Blair's lively acting keeps things watchable throughout -- and she looks mighty fine, too. A decent diversion.
