A better fact, though, is that their jokes are far more likely to fall flat than those of the so-called fairer sex: that’s right, women are ( according to science) more consistently funny. It’s scientifically proven that men are more likely to try and make people laugh. It’s their idea to use salt to ward off the witches, to use car headlamps to make them think dawn (and death) has come, to steal The Book and use it themselves, to work with the forces of the undead, to appeal to Winnie and co’s vanity and keep ‘em talking long enough to catch them off-guard… the list is endless.Īll hail a film that celebrates smart, intelligent and brave women – and puts them firmly in the driving seat. It’s Allison and Dani who warn against lighting the black-flame candle and raising the Sandersons from the dead.
The devil works hard, but these girls work way harder – and, yeah, Allison (Vinessa Shaw) and Dani (Thora Birch) might still both be in school, but they prove themselves more than ready to take on a trio of unholy occultists. We’re talking, of course, about Allison and Dani. Although, saying that, let’s remember that they were up against two wicked-smart female nemeses. All three witches are terrifying in their competence – so much so that we suspect they would have succeeded in their plan if they hadn’t awoken in an entirely different century.
