trashgang This is made in the era when nobody was watching horror any more. The slashers were over and nobody liked horror, it was not done. Most of the flicks made after the slashers were a bit lame and didn't over anything. Mirror Mirror was made in that era. This flick was directed by Marina Sargenti before she left the movie business (only made 2 flicks, this being her first attempt) before entering the field of series (Models inc.). For making her first flicks it do had some names in it like Karen Black and Yvonne De Carlo. For me it was funny to see a short appearance of True Blood's sheriff William Sanderson.Naturally in those kind of flicks were the supernatural or witchcraft is important the outcasts of society are the main reason to experience with those powers. Here we have a Culture Club look-a-like supposed to be a Goth. But once she knows the power of a mirror left at her new home she starts using it as a revenge because nobody wants to be her friend and boys are rejecting her. The story itself is a bit slow on today's norms but some effects do their work. For being made in 1990 the effect used with the mirror was a bit laughable but the burned skin and the return of a deceased one is pretty done.It's a kind of movie that they could have aired at a Saturday night. It delivers some good stuff and for the perverted out there it even contains a shower scene of Charlie Spradling. It's a perfect example that back then horror was on the run searching for what to become next. You can see the effects go away from latex towards cheap computer effects (won't call it CGI). A mediocre effort.

shellyinchains22 I liked this movie a lot. I saw it very young but I still own it. If you like Carrie then you'll like this movie. I don't like to spoil the fun by revealing what the movie is about. I like the revenge parts of the movie. The movie made perfect sense to me if you pay attention there is a storyline and however vague it may be, if you read behind the story then you should understand the ending. My favorite part of the movie was the beginning so if your unsure of the ending then pay attention to the beginning because it explains how the film ends. It's not real confusing I love this movie. It's not really a horror movie filled with lots of gore. I guess if you like witch craft or if you believe in magic then you should watch it. It's an older movie and may be hard to locate at your nearby videostore.

whammy666 This film is excellent, and it is so underrated. The atmosphere is good. Excellent acting...Rainbow Harvest does a great performance as Megan. Karen Black does a fairly good performance as the wacky mother. The ending to this film is one of the most brilliant endings I have seen in my lifetime. No other ending like it. The film is not really scary, thought I am sure some may find it scary. I like the look of the mirror, also. Special effects are pretty good for the low budget.Film is hard to find to rent, best bet is either to buy the MIRROR, MIRROR COLLECTION (worth the 20 bucks just for the first 2 films, 3 and are crap) or to go to a Ma and Pa Video Store. Recommended for horror fans everywhere! 8/10

Earlameyer unless you have this mirror. I enjoyed this movie. I thought the concept was good and was well pulled off. Rainbow Harvest had a certain air around her that made this movie more fun to watch. Some scenes are just plain erotic and sensual, without being sexual. I highly recommend seeing this movie if you ever get the chance.
