Girlfriend from Hell is a 1989 comedy/romance/horror film directed by Daniel Peterson. The movie is a unique blend of genres and follows the story of a teenage girl who is possessed by a demon. The main character, Maggie (played by Liane Curtis), is an awkward, unpopular high school student. She has a crush on a boy named Kevin (played by Dana Ashbrook) who is a popular jock and doesn't even know she exists. One day, Maggie's life changes when she is possessed by a demon. The demon takes over her body and begins to wreak havoc in her life.
Maggie's possessed personality is incredibly different from her normal self. She dresses provocatively, acts confident, and has the ability to control objects with her mind. The demon within her also has a desire to seek revenge on those who have wronged her, including Kevin, who has been ignoring Maggie's existence.
The movie follows Maggie as she tries to navigate her new demonic personality while also trying to fit into high school. Maggie even uses her new powers to try and become more popular, but ultimately learns that it's not worth the cost.
Throughout the film, Maggie's best friend (played by Lezlie Deane) is the only one who believes her story about being possessed. Together, they try to figure out how to rid Maggie's body of the demon and regain her normal life. However, this is easier said than done.
The film features unique visual effects that showcase Maggie's powers, including levitating objects, teleportation, and even a musical number where Maggie sings and dances with her possessed personality. The movie also has a comedic tone, with many moments of humor and satire.
Girlfriend from Hell is a fun and entertaining film that combines elements of horror, romance, and comedy. The cast does an excellent job of portraying their characters, and the special effects are impressive for the time period. The film is a cult classic and has gained a following over the years.
Overall, Girlfriend from Hell is a must-watch for fans of horror-comedies and for those looking for a unique and entertaining movie experience.
