Three girls, Frankie, Tabby and Lourdes calls themselves as witches and has tried various spells but to no avail. And they believed that they need another witch to complete their circle of witches in order for all the witchery stuff to work. 

Then a new girl transfers to their town, Lily who lives with her mother at the new boyfriend's place. Adam, the new boyfriend has three sons.

On her very first day at school, Lily got ridiculed after she has her period in the class, Quickly, the three witches offer their help. And when Timmy, the school bully got telekinetically pushed by Lily, they were quick to assume that Lily is a witch and a member to complete their circle. 

When Lily responds to their call using her mind, the girls were ecstatic to add Lily to their coven. And they waste no time in practising their magic. Their very first test subject was to Timmy, and they cast a spell on him. 

Amazingly, Timmy behaves well the day after and soon become their friend. During a party at Timmy's, Timmy admits that he likes boys and girls and have had s*x with Lily's elder soon-to-be stepbrother. Learning that fact, later Lily cast a spell on Timmy and they kissed when Timmy comes into her room looking for his sweater.

The day after, they learned that Timmy has committed suicide. The girls thought that their spell over Timmy has taken a bad turn on Timmy. Then Lily admitted that she has also cast a love spell over Timmy. And the coven comes to the conclusion that too spell on an individual might cost a life. This confession upsets the others and they sever ties with Lily and bind themselves from magic. 

But it seems that Lily has also discovered a secret that might change her relationship with her mother and her mother's with Adam.

What is the life-altering secret?

MY REVIEW

Plot: 3.5/ 5.0 I remembered being awed by the witchery and magic stuff in the first The Craft. But this one tells more drama in the lives of the young witches. Not so much magic stuff in it. I wish for more magic and witch stuff. 

Cast: 3.0/ 5.0 The young actress delivered good performances. Convincing but if more magic stuff were put in, I think it could elevate the performance.

Will I watch it again: Yes. I don't mind watching it again. But I'll watch the first one first.
