I was just wondering what people thought about this movie. If you think that it's a good portrayal about "The Craft" itself, or just another movie that gives people another opinion to us as freaks.

If you thought that the movie was just about the four girls and not about "The Craft" and not displaying anything about Wicca at all?

The movie did show the basic elements that each girl had:
Sarah-Earth
Bonnie-Air
Nancy-Fire
Rochelle-Water
Each element adds to each girls' personality.

I don't know, but I personally liked the movie itself, but I think that it didnt show the real thing behind Wicca.
What do you think, and please don't flame me, it's just a thought that I've been having.

The craft in my opinion created the fad of being Wiccan.

It also created alot of sterotypes.

I am Pagan myself

People make refrences to that movie all the time.

"Hey,can you float in the air and fly on the broom like in the craft"

My response.

No but I can make you fly.

Right out the window.

I believe there's a multimedia post for talk about movies and such. Just for future reference.

But to answer the questions concerning the movie. I like the movie. It's entertaining. But I wouldn't use it as a reference for the behaviour and practices of those who are Wiccan/pagan/etc... Unless it's truly nonfictional, you shouldn't use any movie in that manner.

I didnt see one, I looked. But I only looked in the Got Goth Guild, because I wanted it to be here because most that I wanted to answer I wanted to be Goth to see what they think because most people disrespect goths and wiccans and paegans from this movie and I wanted to see what they said, sonce most of the would probably be here.

I personally found the movie pretty cool, and yeah it dose show a little bit about "The Craft".

I agree with you too.
I think that movie did start the Wiccan fad and to me it's offensive. If you don't take the movie seriously, it's entertaining. I enjoyed it. My problem is with those who saw the movie and believed it to be fact. Wicca gets enough bad press as it is and there are enough dumb people out there who make stupid comments without knowing anything about the religion. I have actually had someone seriously ask me if I could make them fly. They were dead serious..
People get ideas like that because of movies such as The Craft. I have no problem with the movie. My problem lies with those who can't distinguish fact from reality.
