    Teen Witch is an ideal lamb to the slaughter for you and your friends. It's a great example of late-80s camp, ripe with painfully outdated style and bizarre in the most incomprehensible of ways. This movie isn't terrible by any conventional definitions, but it's a dime-a-dozen ro...( read more)mcom with a gimmick that this era excreted out constantly and has summarily been forgotten. I think the greatest part about it is that Teen Witch completely abandons her frumpy Jewish best friend after she becomes pretty and popular and we never hear from her again.

    I know everyone cites Top That as the pinnacle of this movie, but in my opinion, I Like Boys is by far the most brilliant musical number to be found in Teen Witch. Dances in the locker room? Spray-on deodorant? Towel shimmying? Only in my best dreams.

    this was one of my favorites back in the 80's. I wanted to dress like her when she turned cool. The rap scene top that is still pretty funny...I watched this a few days ago on tv & realized it is very cheesey but most 80s movies are...lol

    The movie was a cheesy's 80 flick, but it made me laugh at some parts. ;) Of course the story line was very lame, but it was a cute movie. I was always curious about this movie when I was in HS, but now that I seen it, it was amusing. ;) I miss the 80's. :D Not for everyone, but ...( read more)I liked it pretty much.

    1. Shana singing
    2. Top That rap
    3. The 80's fabulousness of it all and the many times you can see the boom mic or the studio ceiling in frame. I watch this repeatedly. I can also see why Polly likes Rhet. What a hot d-bag.

    I am desperately after a copy of this movie. Even a burnt copy will do. Willing to swap other movies. If you have this movie, please message me.

    wow, i remember how i use to watch this movie all the time when i was younger. It's a cute poppy chick flick. Now, that I'm older, I realized how cheesy and corny it truly is. And the fact that the girl was putting a spell on her crush to make him like her, is so unsettling, in my mind. But what I truly loved about this movie is the "Take That" scene, involving these corny guys who like to rap and dance on street corners. It is so freaking hilarious. You should see the movie for that alone.
