Bay Coven on Prime is listed under that title, but the poster shown names it as Bay Cove, and when the film actually starts the title is Eye of the Demon. The mark of a quality producton.
Sad Tim Matheson, drinking in the dark. Watch out for witches, Tim!
This is written by the guy that wrote Heroes, so I do not expect it to make any sense at all.
Off to an island, the ferry playing ominous music.
Prince from Lexx has shown up, so things are getting better. He's a creepy letting agent, and still looks like a Canadian knock-off of Udo Kier.
Some housewarming witches have turned up, carrying their cat.
We've already had a history book with the original town name: "Bay Coven", they're hearing chanting in the night, and they still have no doubts this is the place to be.
Literally just found a pentagram surrounded by burning torches. Shrugs all round.
Surprise entrance of Woody Harrelson. I distrust him immediately, but history hasn't been kind to his red baseball cap.
Woody lampshading the fact this is just Rosemary's Baby.
Tim Matheson cruelly didn't return Woody's high five and it's the most horrific thing in this film so far.
Woody has taken over and just found a tiny church. So small that Slash would be found outside, soloing merrily.
Woody has figured the whole thing out in the ten minutes since he turned up. No-one has died there since the 1700s!
Fallon from Dynasty, who is the main character, was just given a dead bird by a spooky young boy. She came so close to saying "Children shouldn't play with dead things" that it hurt when she didn't.
Woody died by reversing off a cliff in an exploding car. Tim Matheson is now doing his best John Cassavetes.
Fallon's friend is doing ALL THE ACTING as she puts on make-up. I hope we see more of her.
The film reveals its real thrill ride - zoning legislation!
More quilting than you would imagine!
Fallon investigating the spooky goings on by outright asking everyone she meets how old they are: "Are you 300 years old?"
Her hair, by the way, is in dire need of conditioning. It was 1987 - it was true of us all.
Fallon has finally gone back to the history book from an hour ago, and using her lawyer skills has figured out a loophole with the island's pact with the devil.
The witches were after Tim Matheson the whole time. His name spelled backwards is Noble, and .... heyyyyyy
(Nobel, actually, but you can understand)
Tim grew an Anton LaVey beard and turned into a witch for a bit.
Fallon locked all the witches in the tiny church then god made it explode. Credits roll as she rows away.
Here's some DVD covers for this made for TV nonsense.
Big fan of the way that the Eye of the Demon cover just puts Bay Coven in brackets too.
