Plot:
It's her 16th birthday, and Sabrina (MELISSA JOAN HART) is feeling a little strange. She just transferred to a new school, moved in with her two otherworldly aunts, and nothing is quite what it seems. Things can only get more complicated when Sabrina learns that she's a real witch. Now, she's got to make friends, memorize spells, and find a way to get a date for the school dance. It'll take a little hocus-pocus and a whole lot of adventure before Sabrina learns to control her powers and find true love.

Extras:
  • Closed Captioned
  • Scene Access


My Thoughts:
After watching the first episode of the series for my TV pilot marathon I thought I take the chance and rewatch the TV movie which came before it.
It's a nice movie. Strange to see it with real sets and outdoor location shooting instead of a sitcom set.
The aunts are played by different actors. Only two actors are here the same as in the series. Of course one is Melissa Joan Hart as Sabrina. The other one is the actress playing Sabrina's friend in the first season. She plays the same character here albeit with a different name.
Harvey is two separate characters in this movie. One is a geeky character called Harvey who is in love with Sabrina. The other one is a jock played by a young Ryan Reynolds. In the series they merged these two characters into one.
Another familiar face is Laura Harris (Daisy in Dead Like Me), who plays one of the friends of the Libby-type character. Though her role is really small.

My Thoughts:
This one was recommended to me a while back and when I saw it on sale at Amazon for only $3.99 I couldn't resist checking it out. And it was definitely worth the price paid. I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. Sure a couple of the scenes were a bit over the top for the story. But over-all I enjoyed it... glad I added it to my collection.

Tom's Random Star Trek Reviews, a review by Tom


Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
6.13 Far Beyond the Stars
Writer: Ira Steven Behr (Screenwriter), Hans Beimler (Screenwriter), Marc Scott Zicree (Original Material By)
Director: Avery Brooks
Cast: Avery Brooks (Captain Sisko / Benny Russell), Rene Auberjonois (Odo / Douglas Pabst), Michael Dorn (Lt. Commander Worf / Willie Hawkins), Terry Farrell (Lt. Commander Dax / Darlene Kursky), Cirroc Lofton (Jake Sisko / Jimmy), Colm Meaney (Chief O'Brien / Albert Macklin), Armin Shimerman (Quark / Herbert Rossoff), Alexander Siddig (Doctor Bashir / Julius Eaton), Nana Visitor (Major Kira / Kay Eaton), Brock Peters (Joseph Sisko / Preacher), Jeffrey Combs (Officer Mulkahey), Marc Alaimo (Officer Ryan), J. G. Hertzler (Roy Ritterhouse), Aron Eisenberg (Vendor), Penny Johnson (Kasidy Yates / Cassie)

Not exactly time-travel but it qualifies for me nonetheless. Sisko has visions about being a black science-fiction writer in the fifties. I always really enjoyed this episode. It's also nice to see the cast without their alien make-up.
