ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Leofwine_draca DEATH BY INVITATION is very similar in tone to that other indie feature of the era, MARK OF THE WITCH, albeit not as good. The reason for that is that the budget is even smaller. Things start off with a historical witch-burning before we move to the then-current day, where a mysterious young woman is possessed by the spirit of a vengeful witch and wreaks havoc by murdering the descendants of the townsfolk responsible for the immolation. Being an independent feature, this is a story which is very dragged out and static, mostly consisting of just two or three characters conversing in a small room. There's a little atmosphere which comes from the creepy soundtrack, although occasionally a blare of library music takes you out of the zone. Where this film does hit home is in the acting of Shelby Leverington, in her debut performance. She hits just the right creepy note and is surprisingly powerful; a shame that the rest is merely so-so.

Ben-Martin-895-384878 I agree with the other reviews - so why am i writing. Because watching this actually made me angry. I've dabbled in low-budget filmmaking and its a real challenge. But there is no excuse for two things: 1. an absolute crap script. 2. Tedium in the locations you choose. Follow the rules set down by low-budget filmmakers from the past and don't do what Herschel Gordon Lewis did and shoot against ugly walls in boring living rooms. This film has one scene after another take place at a dinner table. Also, did anyone have any fun whatsoever in making this film? There is little joy in evidence. Hard for me to believe our writer/director went on to write White Line Fever. there is no talent whatsoever in evidence in this ludicrous, uninteresting, incomplete, incompetent script.

kapelusznik18 ***SPOILERS*** It was back in Colonial times when this accused witch Lise, Shelby Leverington, was burned at the stake on the testimony of the village elder, now reincarnated in 1971 Staten Island New York, Peter Vroot, Adam Phillips, who claimed that he saw her having sex with the Devil himself. Now some 300 years into the future Lise is back seeking revenge against Vroot and his entire family for what he did to her. Getting friendly with the Vroot family Lise plans to off them in a series of brutal and ritual-like murders that she planned for them. But when it came to Jake played by Norman Paige, who looks a lot like former New York Yankee 1st baseman Joe "Pepe" Pepitone, who's engaged to Aaron's daughter Coral, Rhonda Russell, she plans more then killing him but in talking the guy to death with her stories about a tribe of cannibalistic man eating women that she claims to be a member of.It was Lise's first victim young Roger Vroot, Denver John Collins, who she put to sleep with her ramblings about the tribe of wild man eating women that caused him to lose his head over it. But when it came to do the same to Jake he wanted to hear nothing about it since what he really wanted from Lise was a lot more then the BS talk she was slinging on him. All Jake wanted was a romp in the hey or bed with Lise which, when he started to come on to her, broke her concentration and rendered her witchcraft-like powers utterly useless.***SPOILERS*** With Jake now in control and checking out Lise's apartment he comes upon the shocking sight of young Elly Vroot, Lesley Knight, whom Lise had previously murdered and dismembered stuffed in a plastic bag in her closet. As everything in the film is starting to go to pot all of a sudden out of nowhere old man Aaron Vroot burst in with a hatchet and ends up getting chopped up himself by some unseen force with both Jake & Lise looking on! Totally mindless film that tries to tie in Aaron Vroot suffering with the Bible story of Joab but messes up on it's ending by what seems like having not enough time or film or money to finish it.

utgard14 Laughably inept movie about a witch's hippie descendant named Lise (Shelby Leverington) who takes revenge on the descendants of those who burned her ancestor at the stake. I've seen this plot done before and better. Terribly directed, edited, acted, written...you name it, this movie sucks at it. Does have some merit as an unintentional comedy, however. My favorite scene is Lise's monologue where she tells this sad sack Roger about how women used to run things and then this one big guy took over and the men started running things so the women killed the big guy and ate him. When she was done with her long-winded story, she seductively says "Hand me the ashtray, Roger." It was supposed to be erotic or something, I guess, but it just made me burst out laughing. This is strictly amateur hour stuff, so avoid unless you're into that sort of thing.
