Now is the time.
This is the hour.
Ours is the magic.
Ours is the power.
Unleash your inner-90’s witchy-self and get into the Halloween spirit with a prime time screening of THE CRAFT.
Neve Campbell, Fairuza Balk, Robin Tunney and Rachel True star as a group of misfit girls on the fringe of their high school crowd who band together to form a unique clique (or, perhaps, “coven”) of their own. What starts out as just harmless fun – getting back at those people who’d slight them – soon grows out of control. Also starring Skeet Ulrich, Christine Taylor, and Breckin Meyer.
“Set to a banging alt-rock soundtrack, it follows four teenage outcasts who begin dabbling in the dark art of witchcraft, and soon find themselves out of their depth.” (NME)
“The great strength of ‘The Craft’ is that it doesn’t pass judgment on why the girls are doing what they do… The film’s message of female empowerment felt cathartic, but so did its rage.” (Refinery29)

THE CRAFT (Andrew Fleming, 1996 / 111 mins) | When newcomer Sarah moves to a new city with her family to start a new life, she makes fast friends with some of the girls in her schoool who are just as “on the fringe” as she is. A shared interest in the occult goes further than they expected as they each attain unusual powers. What starts out as good fun soon turns dangerous.
