Resolutely misguided without ever really crossing into "so bad it's good" territory, Tamara lacks even the cheap thrills promised by its premise. Read critic reviews

Jun 19, 2011Not as good as the "Final Destination" films, but It's still a good horror flick with very disturbing\bloody moments.Jacob P Super Reviewer

Sep 17, 2010A good teen slasher horror film with plenty of gore and chills, and a solid performance by Jenna Dewan as a misfit high school student named Tamara Dewan who is longing for the forbidden love from a married teacher, through witchcraft she tries to put a love spell on him, but before she can carry that out, a terrible prank goes tragically wrong, and she killed by the group of fellow students who dislike her. They secretly bury her body in the deep woods, thinking that they have gotten away with it, scot-free, but Tamara comes back from the grave with deadly supernatural powers bent on revenge and death to all of her tormenters. She appears the next day at school to the horror of her murderers, no longer the homely girl they knew, she has transformed into a mini-skirt wearing, smoking hot, super sexy vixen. In one of the funniest payback scenes, Tamara gets even with two date-raping jocks by making them have sex with each other. She also gets back at her beer drinking low-life father who lusts for her, by making him eat beer bottles, swallowing the broken glass until he bleeds to death. A entertaining entry in the genre that is a cut above the usual low-rent horror trash, a well-crafted guilty pleasure. Recommended.Danny R Super Reviewer

Jan 16, 2010Highly flawed and yet somehow it manages to entertain. It's pretty much Carrie all over again, with a few tweaks here and there. Best of all is Jenna Dewan who does look incredible. I don't think she needed witchcraft to make people do what she wanted. There's also some scenes which aren't present in every slasher/horror. Most notably a rather gruesome self-mutilation. There are members of the cast you expect were cast for something other than their acting ability, but you'll also get some cheap thrills.Luke B Super Reviewer
