Hansel and Gretel:
Witch Hunters hitting theaters this month, here comes the
low-budget DTV rip-off called Hansel & Gretel: Warriors of Witchcraft.
The film is a dark modern day twist on this fairytale and aims to draws in the
tweens and Twihard with casting Booboo Stewart of
The Twilight Saga franchise and his
sister Fivel Stewart. The film also co-stars Eric Roberts and Vanessa Angel,
which just add more cheese to this already cheesy film. Unless you are a young
girl, I would steer very clear from this. Official Premise: Jonah and Ella Mazer
(Hansel and Gretel) were happy, normal teenagers–sent to an elite boarding
school. The Head Master, Sebastian, seems to know more about the brother and
sister than they know about themselves. As both get to know their high school
classmates, strange and frightening things begin to happen. When their new
friends explain that they are all descended from powerful witches, and they’ve
been waiting for Hansel and Gretel to join them and complete a new generation of
the Coven, both refuse to believe them. But it’s not until Hansel discovers a
message from his mother in an old leather-bound book of spells hidden in the
school library, that he understands their true and dangerous destiny – slaying
witches. Some of the special effects look cool to be honest so it isn’t all bad.
I was a little soft on my rating, since I had the priveldge of meeting and
interviewing Mr. Booboo Stewart in person and he is really a super cool kid. I
feel bad that he had to take on this role. The special features include an audio
commentary track with the director David DeCoteau and the stars Booboo and Fivel
Stewart. It is entertaining for the most part and Booboo and his sister Fivel
seems like they are having fun together. Lastly there is a stills gallery
