Jesus Christ Superstar (1973)
A great movie!
This is the only musical that I actually really liked watching. I watch some other musicals from time to time, but apart from Grease I never really liked any of them. Descriptions of JCS often say it's a Rock-Opera, but don't take the opera part too seriously if you're thinking of opera as the Italian-language extremely high shouting....
Jesus Christ Superstar is just amazing. The actors are great, both in acting and in singing. Especially Carl Anderson (i think that's his name) as Judas is great, and the story is really entertaining, with quite some interesting or funny details in the movie (like Roman soldiers carrying machine guns). People who criticise this film for being inaccurate have obviously not been paying very much attention, because accuracy is not the main point in the film. It's a movie to entertain, not to be of historical value. I even think that you're better off not watching it if you're religious, because you might get offended by how some things are portrayed, whereas for a non-religious man like me, it's easier to look at things objectively and look at this as an entertainment movie, not as a movie with a religious moral, because there's obviously no real religious message to this film, which is why I like it so much.
Witchcraft II: The Temptress (1989)
If it's so bad, then why do you watch it?
Not that I really liked this movie, in fact, I watched only part 1 and 2. The first was OK, but the second was so much worse that I never watched a Witchcraft movie again. It seems to me that you are all with me, but what I can't understand is why the h**l you watch FIVE other sequels too if you thought this one was so awful??????
