    Lovely Kaitan gets even
    My review was written in March 1989 after watching the film on Forum video cassette.

    Modest horror pic uses the ever-popular revenge motif for this supernatural tale bowing domestically in video stores.

    Attractive, round-faced Elizabeth Kaitan oplines (in her biggest role to date) as an acting student who's gang-raped by classmates but blackmailed to avoid reporting it.

    Her roommate talks her into answering a "revenge" adi in the paper.

    Lois Masten is the gypsy-styled necromancer who places these ads. She's in touch with the devil and uses a client's revenge request as license to go hog wild killing people, with the hapless instigator unable to stop her. In Kaitan's case, Masten demonically assumes Kaitan's form, seduces the rapists and then offs them (with minimal makeup and gore effects).

    Okay acting saves this low-budgeter, which spotlights Kaitan's beauty in a multiple role. Russ Tamblyn has fun as her lecherous, Shakespeare-spoutin acting performance.
