Movie Reviews of Satan's School for Girls
Movie Review: Twisted early '70s made-for-TV horror
Summary: 5 Stars
WARNING: Some spoilers ahead
Satan's School For Girls (1973) was a made-for-TV horror movie. This movie stars Pamela Franklin (The Innocents, The Witching, The Legend Of Hell House), Kate Jackson (Dark Shadows, Charlie's Angels), Cheryl Stoppelmoor (known more famously as Cheryl Ladd from Charlie's Angels, CSI: Miami, Las Vegas), Lloyd Bochner (Bewitched, Dynasty), Jamie Smith Jackson, Roy Thinnes (Falcon Crest, Dark Shadows, General Hospital, One Life To Live, The X-Files), and Jo Van Fleet (East Of Eden).
The movie is pretty twisted, dark, spooky, and downright scary at times. It's also somewhat cheesy at times. It has that early '70s low budget "LSD trip" feel to it, if you get what I mean. What the plot boils down to is there is a girl who is being chased by a crazy man. This girl later is found hanged in her room from an apparent suicide. Her sister refuses to believe it's a suicide and decides to investigate by visiting the school where her sister attended, called the Salem Academy for women. She enrolls in the college. Weird and bizarre things start happening with some of the students, including murders. Eventually it's revealed that one of the instructors is responsible for all the evil deeds that are occurring. He heads a satanic cult in which some of his students are followers who believe he is Satan. I'll leave it at that and won't reveal the ending. It's for you to discover.
I like this movie. The picture quality is somewhat low and grainy, but I don't mind because this is an old early '70s movie that hasn't been given the cleanup treatment. If you like twisted horror, then I recommend this flick.
