Conrado Meireles I really love this movie. Suspense, mystery and sensuality from start to finish. The characters, the plot, the music, the photography seem so normal in the first analysis. But the feature film is so well shot and staged that it takes the viewer into the plot. The plot and the mystery get better every minute. I really enjoyed the ending. It's those endings that makes you think days on the subject addressed. I think I would also have a sad ending if I were the main character in the movie. Another detail to mention is the charm of the big city in the 80's. Charm brings with it mysteries, secrets and dangers. And finally, I recommend this movie to everyone.

BA_Harrison Yuppie L.A. lawyer Jeff Mills (Timothy Daly) and his colleagues rescue a beautiful woman, Miranda Reed (Kelly Preston), from her abusive boyfriend: with nowhere to go, the sexy damsel in distress accepts Jeff's invitation to stay at his place and before long, the pair start a relationship. But Jeff's newfound happiness doesn't last long: it transpires that Miranda is a witch, and the other members of her coven want her back—at any cost.Supernatural thriller Spellbinder will hold no surprises at all for anyone familiar with The Wicker Man, for its build-up and eventual twist are all very derivative of Robin Hardy's critically acclaimed (oc)cult classic. That said, the film is still a reasonably enjoyable time-waster, with decent turns from all involved, some atmospheric chills, and the lovely Kelly Preston pleasing admirers with a steamy sex scene.6.5/10, rounded up to 7 for IMDb.

Claudio Carvalho In Los Angeles, the successful lawyer Jeff Mills (Timothy Daly) plays a basketball game after hour with his colleagues. When he comes to the parking area with his friend Derek Clayton (Rick Rossovich), they see a stranger hitting a young woman and Jeff and Derek protect her. Then she explains that her name is Miranda Reed (Kelly Preston) and she lives with the man named Aldys (Anthony Crivello). Jeff brings her home and they have one night stand; but she moves to Jeff's apartment and they start living together. When Aldys finds Jeff, Miranda vanishes and he seeks the police department to report the disappearance of Miranda. Lieutenant Lee (Cary- Hiroyuki Tagawa) sees the photo of Miranda and asks him about her necklace. Soon Jeff learns that it is the symbol of a satanic sect that worships the devil. Out of the blue, Miranda reappears and explains to Jeff that her mother is a witch that introduced her to her coven. She is trying to leave them and she needs to miss the next solstice, when they will gather at a beach to sacrifice a human being that will spontaneously participate of the meeting and take his heart. When Miranda is abducted by the worshipers, Jeff decides to seek her out. "Spellbinder" is a spooky, sexy and underrated horror movie with a flawless story in the style of "Rosemary's Baby". I saw this movie three or four times in the 90's and today I have just watched it again on VHS. The plot convinces mainly due to Kelly Preston, who is lovely gorgeous and sexy and capable to seduce the lonely Jeff Mills like she does in the story. The final twist is absolutely unexpected and surprises the viewer. My vote is nine.Title (Brazil): "Enfeitiçados" ("Bewitched")Note: On 03 September 2015, I saw this movie again.

nightcrawlercyp-311-219346 I liked the movie a lot and was very well done. As some others have already said it has the same motif as "the wicker man" the first version (not the one with Nicholas Cage). What I would like to note is the group of people the witches belong to. Even if it is in reality a form of Satanism most practitioners do not see it that way and call it neo-paganism. I feel like Wicker Man expresses much better that part. In most cases those groups that practice neo-paganism (Wicca for instance) may seem benign in nature as they do not do sacrifices almost never. But in certain conditions they do animals sacrifices. (like when a new witch is promoted)Also in very specific case they all also do human sacrifices as the Wicker Man showed. It helped the movie a lot that Miranda is gorgeous, and the acting was very good. The symbols used though should be better documented.
