This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Ew - I got about a third of the way through this before I felt like I was reading the diary of a 12year old girl. This movie has a tight target audience and not much appeal to the rest of us.Nice production values and cute sets. But it feels more like a long episode of Degrassi. There's also just about no male characters except for the school counselor.It emerged onto my radar mistakenly classified as a horror. There ain't much horror here folks.What else can I say? There's a lot of sashaying. The Mary character seems to move perpetually in a stylized slow mo almost like a video clip. Tycho appears on the soundtrack which I thought was a fresh choice.

The Sisterhood of Night is a film in which should be shown to everyone. This movie is based around a group of teens who opted to step away from the social networks and all the ignorant drama that takes place within them, in fact they specified Facebook to be the one to opt away from. A group of teens form a secret club and that club was to simply help each other have an outlet to work on their inner problems and cope with them without the ignorance of gossipers.This movie showed how something as simple as their club can be turned into a public spectacle due to jealousy within the social aspect of social media outlets such as facebook. This movie was not a perfectly overpriced film, and it did not casts the A list of actors and actresses, it put the story out as it was to be. The story-line was amazing, the cast did a wonderful job, this movie as a whole deserves an award for what they made. Outstanding!!!

There are many young stars in the making here. This ensemble cast of teens captures the pains of growing up and being heard in a hostile environment known as young adulthood. It has elements of The Crucible, in that the town they live in is on a witch hunt to find the secret belonging to this group of young female outcasts. But the main driver of the story is the pain of growing up and how each of these girls deals with it and its consequences. Great visuals and a pulsing beat captivates you even further. I'm not a teenage girl but I could relate to the world Waechter created. The characters were not black and white. The antagonists had redeeming qualities. The protagonists had flaws. All in all there was complexity here. And there are probably elements in this story - alienation, understanding, prejudice, judgment - we can all relate to, no matter what age we are.

I was fortunate to be in the North American Premiere of this film at the Woodstock Film Festival in October. Having grown up in Kingston, NY where the film was shot was an added highlight. In addition, the screenwriter and director, along with many actors in the film were available for a question and answer session after the showing. The filmmaking and acting was terrific. Georgie Henley did a great job as the main female lead as did Kal Penn, as a Guidance Counselor. The storyline was intense, but humor added in between the dramatic parts of the plot worked very well. Since the main characters are teenage girls, I would imagine that it would be that age group that is drawn to this film.
