FILM 23

FILM: The Substitute
PREMISE: 6th Grade gets a new substitute teacher. She wants to train the class for an international competition in Paris. But something isn't right. How is she able read kids' minds? Why is she so mean? And how does she manage to convince everyone's parents she is so great when the whole class knows she is really an alien?

REVIEW: This is a fun little horror film. My only really major gripe was not with the actual film but the presentation. There was no subtitles available for this DVD release. I was stuck with the awful dubbed version. It totally took me out of the film. I could swear an adult was doing the voice over work for one of the children. The dialoge and f/x were cheesy but it still was a good time. And if you saw the other films from this marathon (Dance of the Dead excluded) you will realize that this a decent film from the genre. I give this a 6 out of 10.
