After being recruited to a secretive academy, a group of students discover that the magic they read about as children is very real and more dangerous than they ever imagined. But will getting hooked on the thrill of magic distract them from honing their powers when they need them most?
1. Not the "Mothman" again; so he's still haunting the movie horror genre. That's called creative writing. And, we learn he's from another world. Has to be, moths are too butterfly cute on this one to be evil. 2. Not another supernatural killing dagger. You would think we would have moved on from kitchen knives that save the world. Maybe I should buy those infomercial knife sets for $9.99 and not a penny less. 3. Lollipop house! Yum, and dumb! Props dept. must have had fun with that one. 4. "Alice is God powered."? What does that mean? Is it like an additive you put in your gas tank? 5. Not another hieroglyphic, spinning, magical device to another dimension or wherever? How many times has that been used? 6. High school robotic acting; dumbed down dialogue; fake stereotyped Hollywood props & clothing; script is loaded with scenes of just talking heads, but we do get the stand by of CGI flashing eyes and blue flashing lights/events to represent mystical magical machinations. 7. Curious how every female looks as if she just left the beauty salon.
