Highly Overrated But Still Good

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Mirror, Mirror (1990) If I did see trailer which dose show most of the movie but It didn't really a fact the movie that much but it better seeing this movie , before even thinking about the trailer. I really enjoyed it was a lot of fun to watch, This movie had some very creepy moment that worked really with really good tense before some very gross moment and some of death scenes were really gory and very well done.The death in shower is was total unexpected really took me by surprisedThis had from the very first second of the movie until decent ending of the movie. Great acting from the whole cast I giving this movie 8! out of 10 GREAT Fun movie! UNDERRATED)

I liked this movie a lot. I saw it very young but I still own it. If you like Carrie then you'll like this movie. I don't like to spoil the fun by revealing what the movie is about. I like the revenge parts of the movie. The movie made perfect sense to me if you pay attention there is a storyline and however vague it may be, if you read behind the story then you should understand the ending. My favorite part of the movie was the beginning so if your unsure of the ending then pay attention to the beginning because it explains how the film ends. It's not real confusing I love this movie. It's not really a horror movie filled with lots of gore. I guess if you like witch craft or if you believe in magic then you should watch it. It's an older movie and may be hard to locate at your nearby videostore.

I watched Mirror Mirror many years ago back in I think 1991. I seem to remember it being a pretty good film. After all these years, with the help of EBay, I found another copy and just got done watching it. Very interesting film.The movie starts out back in the 30's. A young woman appears to have murdered her friend with an ominous looking mirror in the background. Now, skip to present day (1990), Megan and her mother have just moved into the same house in which that murder took place. The same ominous mirror is still in the house and instead of disposing of it, Megan has grown a liking to it. Now, Megan is a teenager and dresses like a goth kid so naturally she is tormented in the new school she is going to. But, she discovers that this mirror is giving her powers and her tolerance for the kids at school is wearing thin.I know this description of the movie sounds a bit cheesy but you have to watch the movie to really catch the atmosphere. The camera angling is absolutely wonderful, the score is wonderful, the acting is okay (except Karen Black who is always welcome), the special effects are okay considering that this movies strong point was its atmosphere. And the ending is quite original. All in all, I give this a 7/10. Good effort.

~Spoiler~ While watching Mirror Mirror, I got that nostalgic feeling that I only get when watching a movie I saw when I was little that I've forgotten about. That is one of my favorite feelings in the world. However, it did not magically transform Mirror Mirror into a good flick. I have to say that this was one sorry excuse for a horror film. We've seen the whole "geek" empowerment thing done way too many times. The best example of this is always going to be Carrie. In the film, Karen Black and her daughter, Rainbow Harvest (a dead ringer for Winona Ryder in Beetlejuice), move into an old house that is inhabited by a demonic mirror. The mirror gives the outcast daughter certain powers and the teen takes it too far. The movie takes a long while to get going and nothing creative or even fun ever happens. The demon doesn't even escape from the mirror. You see the demon once at the end; he pops his head out to say hello and that's it. Yvonne DeCarlo of Munsters fame co-stars as the ever-present character who knows exactly what's going on and how to stop it. Karen Black isn't given much to do and William Sanderson is completely wasted in a role that's not even necessary to the plot. In fact, several parts could have been omitted to get Mirror Mirror down to 90 minutes. Sadly, this is another forgettable entry.
