**_Great cast in a spooky tale set at a girl’s boarding college in Oregon_** Released to TV in 1977, this combines the milieu of another television drama/horror, “Satan’s School for Girls” (1973) and “Suspiria” with bits influenced by “The Exorcist.” You can’t beat the female cast, which stars Joan Hackett as the headmistress and several notable up-and-comers, like Ann Dusenberry, Diana Scarwid, Carol Jones, Dinah Manoff, Susan Walden and PJ Soles. On the masculine side of things, James Farentino stars as the former priest turned exorcist and is quite ‘cool’ in the role (I don’t know how else to put it). Meanwhile Harrison Ford has a peripheral part as a biology teacher similar to the professor he would play four years later in “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” Remember the female student in that movie with “love you” written on her eyelids? I’m sure that that bit was influenced by a subplot here. Of course, Harrison would skyrocket to fame with his next movie (a theatrical one) released the same year, “Star Wars.” Unfortunately, I found the dramatics dull with only the cast drawing interest and maybe 2-3 thrilling parts. “Satan’s School for Girls” wasn’t anything phenomenal, but it’s superior to this. Nevertheless, if you like flicks like “The Woods” (2006), it’s worth a look. It's short ‘n’ sweet at 1 hour, 14 minutes, and was shot at Reed College in Portland, Oregon. GRADE: C
