but that can be true though. A lot of girls can be conventionally/stereotypically pretty if they maybe changed their hairstyle, or makeup, or how they dress. Even some VS models that look "hot" were actually nerdy and considered unattracive in the past xD
its true tbh. most "ugly" girls can be somewhat attractive with the right makeup. most guys though will fuck anything that moves so "ugly" tamara isnt ugly to them.
Alot of people go through abuse and hardship it doesn't matter how good looking u are you devolop all kinds of subconscious issues not saying you can't overcome it but it takes alot of mental strength
You mistake genetics with hotness. Hotness is the effort. Genetics is what you were born with. Billions of women have good genetics but don't make an effort and thus are ignored.
Gotta love these early 2000 teen movies. Obviously conventionally attractive young woman gets "made-down" , teachers who appear only 3 years older than their students, very lackadaisical consequences for school scandals.
When I was a in high school, my calculus teacher was only 24. I actually had 5 or 6 teachers in their 20’s, so the young teacher trope isn’t too far off.

@@jax422 yeah I honestly vaguely remember the younger teachers in my own school days, but Tamara and Mr Natoli look like they could have at least gone to college together as classmates
Uh, she was about to talk to the teacher when Tamara show up. A wise move I'd say, consulting an adult first before going all justice, especially knowing she was in an unfavorable position.
ya know, I feel bad for the girl most of all. The guys were found out for cheating and taking enhancements so they humiliate her and subsequently murder her (whether it was intentional or not). She didn't even finish the spell because she knew it was wrong. If they wouldn't have done that, she most likely wouldn't have gone through with it at all and that never would have happened.
Yet, she got everything she wanted and Allison lost everything. She literally forced her teacher to break his vows to his wife and acknowledge his feelings for her while committing suicide with her plus she brutally murdered everyone who has wronged her. If she was ugly, the comments would not be sympathetic which shows disturbing psych of most people.
@@thelastbison2241 I’m not saying that that didn’t happen, but before she died, she refused to go through with it and never killed anyone. That’s all AFTER they killed her. Having a crush on her teacher and trying to get him to like her over his wife is wrong, but aside from that almost kiss that she was extremely embarrassed of, she never did anything else when she was normal. Obviously she went psychotic but like I said that was AFTER she died

Yeh, but they were there and didn't stop it...they are just as guilty. Evil thrives because self-proclaiming good people turn a blind eye to what is happening.
@@vendattavee1745 I don’t know. That kind of logic can be used to blame a lot of people for things they weren’t involved in. And I haven’t seen the whole movie, but the recap makes it seem like by the time they figured out what was happening, it was already too late.
@@vendattavee1745 Your definition of evil is too broad to be useful. Under your definition, literally anyone who watches world news is evil. Your definition incentivizes ignorance and self isolation. The people who watched George Floyd die were evil. The people who were there at the Kyle Rittenhouse shooting were evil. If you say "but that's different" then you'll be walking back your position because you literally said "Yeh, but they were there and didn't stop it.... _*they are just as guilty*_".
in this case, you die a victim or live to be the villain. or should I say "you die a victim AND live to be the villain" since she came back from death. doesn't matter. either way. I agree with the quote. mostly because heroes are heroes only while they are needed. afterwards, they are either trash or a villain.
I felt the least sorry for Chloe. Those "I don't get invlved in drama because I'm friends with everybody" are the worst type of bully enabler. They always act like they are heroes for doing less than the bare minimum.
This was a little similar to The rage Carrrie 2 and Jennifer's Body, except the bullies killed Tamara, she's basically a witch, she came back to life to destroy her killers.

This film, in too many ways, resembles Tomie (1998). Created by Junji Ito, the mastermind behind Uzumaki, the manga and film were about a beautiful female creature who could control anyone, man or woman. Driving them insane with love to where they would destroy themselves or focus their crazed violence against others, including Tomie. And yet, no matter what happened to this creature, she would constantly regenerate and come back to life. However, there is no evidence that writer-producer Jeffrey Reddick, who helped create the Final Destination series, was inspired by that J-horror film. And yet, the parallels are too stark to ignore. A beautiful girl with supernatural powers, the ability to take control of anyone's mind, and seemingly indestructible. Even the name of the character and story, Tamara, could be construed as a westernized variant on Tomie. The only thing breaking the mold between both stories is that Tamara was a stand-alone film while Tomie spawned a 9 part film series from 1998 to 2011. If Riddick was inspired by this j-horror juggernaut, he'll likely never admit to it since he was unwilling or able to turn it into a film series. (☉‿☉✿)
@@nativenewyorker3144 Hello there. Your comparison between Jennifer's Body (2009) and Tamara (2005) is very astute. Both movies deal with a protagonist who has crossed paths with black magic and Satanism. Thus, they are transformed into a supernatural creature that causes untold mayhem upon an unsuspecting populace. However, if you actually read Stephen King's novel or at least watched the original film adaption, you would know that the protagonist only has one superpower: telekinesis. Indeed, in the original novel, Carrie White's ability to move objects was never thoroughly explained. And yet, in the epilogue, when the authorities conclude an investigation of Carrie's rampage, it is hinted that her telekinesis was born from a rare genetic defect. And, in another part of the world, a small child is discovered demonstrating the same telekinetic abilities as Carrie. Or in other words, Carrie White would have been right at home at the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning if given the opportunity. If she proved herself to not be a narcissistic reprobate sociopath like Max Eisenhardt & the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Professor Xavier likely would have made her part of the X-Men. ( ͡⚆ ͜ʖ ͡⚆ )
@@duke_of_lilywhite4829 I’m aware of her powers. I’m a very big fan of the novel. I just mean that the movies are more similar in the trope they follow. While all movies are based on Carrie, Tamara follows much more heavily. The movie relied strongly on the idea of the bullied protagonist getting revenge due to some “big prank”. To be fair though, all three, Carrie, Tamara, and Tomie could just as easily be the same thing. It just sounds like Tomie is crossing more into demonic territory like Jennifer’s Body than witchcraft
@@nativenewyorker3144 That's an honorable assessment. Thus, as The Most Interesting Man in the World once said, "Stay Thirsty, My Friends." ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡° )
Sean and Mr Riley were horrible people plus Patrick and Kisha were bullies but no one deserves their fates. Roger, Jesse and Chloe were unknowingly roped into the cruel prank but suffered anyway. Mr Tanolly was a hero and he and Alisson were victims of Tamara, who started off as a victim but became an evil villain.
I remember this movie so fondly cause my friend is in it as one of the high schoolers. It was basically Jenna Dewan's first movie and probably her best role.
9:00 "Tamara shows up and thanks them for turning her into confident girl" I had no idea "confident" means wearing hooker costumes and walking like ones. Also, the motion she started walking was kind of funny, like we could as well hear the director said "action!".
@Seductive Raven you must be a fat woman that hates men. Probably a muff diver too. Can't blame you though. I am a muff diver myself. We have a lot in common except that I am a man and not fat. You probably blame men for your feelings of inadequacy and self loathing. Keep on licking girl, you got this.
I dont think she looked like a „hooker“ i think before and after she looked great and bomb both ways And that word u used is awful to call someone or someones look/Style
Chloe, jesse, teacher and his wife didnt deserve this, chloe and jesse just wanted some friends, teacher was just being nice to his student and he wanted a kid with the woman of his dreams, tamara did a bit too much, only keisha patrick and shaun deserved it
I disagree, I think what they did was horrible but not something worth being killed over, also she essentially raped an innocent guy because she forced him to have sex with someone who took advantage of women that makes her just as bad if not worse than him.
The part that I didn't understand in this movie was how did casting a love spell bring her back to life, and made her look like Allysa Milano from Charmed.
Yeah only one survived second she tried for her teacher whole time n less about revenge she could have killed all of them one by one daily n then she should have go for her teacher after they were dead
Saw this film years ago, and thought Jenna Dewan was fantastic. Must have been difficult to hide her attractiveness before her character underwent that sexy makeover.
She did a love spell bounding her n the teacher together she was finna complete the spell but she changed her mind n decided not 2 but when they killed Tamara her blood was spilled completing the spell so basically the evil teens started all of it bc if she wasn't killed nothing would of happened
I love Tamara. It was something new, fresh, unique, inventive, stylish, cool, edgy, hip, and updated such as the concept and theme. You have a good time with this movie. It's a guilty pleasure for me.😏 Jenna Dewan did a phenomenal and spectacular job portraying Tamara Riley as she put tons of emotion and depth into her role. It was decent. To this day I still watch it and I consider it a classic. It never gets old.😍💯😎👍
Chloe has multiple personalities, she was in the entire prank, she knows it’s Tamara (AT LEAST FROM MY POINT OF VIEW, I RESPECT YOURS, SO I WON’T FORCE IT ON ANYONE, AS EVERYONE HAS DIFFERENT PERCEPTIONS) she even laughed, dint do anything to stop it, even tho she tried defending Tamara later, she was into it EARLIER. And I wouldn’t say Tamara is obsessed with witchcraft, she’s just dedicated. I don’t perceive it as obsessive. Her spell did worked but in a way she din’t exactly desired. I wonder why Tamara’s MALE HATERS still hated her tho even tho she went HOT. I dint quite understand the logic of the writer there, cause I would’ve made them like her, while the mean girls would envy her, but they’ll still all die. Other than that, this is PERSONALLY one of my favorite movies.
They still hate her cause her being attractive didn’t mean anything to them. It just creeped them out more. They were scared she was gonna say something
Karma is stronger than any spell work so be careful what you do. There was only 2 innocent people in this entire story in my opinion. The teacher and his wife were the 2 innocents the rest weren't innocent even if we didn't see it personally it was implied by who they were friends with. Friends are always like minded even if nobody knows it.
Those "I don't get in the middle of drama because I'm friends with everybody" enablers are the worst kind. They do less than the bare minimum but act like heroes for it.
There should be a Carrie and Tamara crossover where they find another victim of bullying and they help the girl and kill the victims bullies for her while training her to get some power
I think I just saw a similar story... A Korean or Hong Kong horror movie? Where group of students killed their classmate. Then she returned the other day like nothing happened. They found out she was a ghost and killed them one by one.
I don’t really know how to thank your *akor the great* you are sure a wonderful spiritualist ,your work is so amazed me keep it up,once again thanks for bring back my relationship back to me
As is any practitioner would rip a page out of a hardback book. Let alone an antique and/or imported Occult tome. It beggars belief! 😸 Love spells going away though, that can definitely happen according to real world practitioners. Even worse if it's a specific person that doesn't have any love or attraction towards you already.
0:25 "Sees how unattractive she is???" ...Even without the makeup, she looks better than 100% of the girls I've dated...and I'm sure that applies to all the dudes in the comments section too.😮
Literally the only victims in the end were the teacher and his wife. The bullies of course are murderers Tamara while I do condone revenge she also tried to destroy a innocent family for her own selfish reasons making her no better than her bullies (also even if I think they are also in the wrong Chloe her boyfriend and the nerd guy didnt deserve death, some revenge? Yes but not death specially the gruesome death 2 of them had) Chloe her boyfriend and the nerd guy were all enablers who allowed themselves to be blackmailed and coahersed into covering up a murder.
Male witchcraft terms: A wizard is usually a male who dedicates his life to obtaining knowledge and wisdom through magic. A sorcerer is a man who is a natural at manipulating energies and casting spells usually with a object like a magic wand or crystals like Harry Potter. They also usually use their powers for evil. A magician is a guy who plays with magic for his own amusement or to entertain people. A warlock is a male witch or someone who betrays their coven and gets banned from practicing magic openly.
@@machine6143 Well I’m not into the occult even though I know I am smart enough to become a skilled witch. I found myself striving towards Christianity after my own experiences with the spirit realm and know the occult is playing with the spirit realm without Gods guidance to show what spirits are actually evil and masquerading as good. I just researched these terms and they do have specific qualifications.
@Light Remus I could care less about Harry Potter. I just mentioned him as a example. I said in my comment that I researched these terms myself. Only recently have males acquired the title witch and the terms were always gender separated. Plus I also mentioned the other definition of a warlock which is a guy who betrays his coven.
What makes her unattractive? So annoying. She’s still pretty. Are we supposed to believe that we’re ugly when we don’t wear makeup? Because that’s literally the only difference.
love the whole "hot girl isnt hot cause she isnt wearing make up and hasnt brushed her hair" movie trope.
but that can be true though. A lot of girls can be conventionally/stereotypically pretty if they maybe changed their hairstyle, or makeup, or how they dress. Even some VS models that look "hot" were actually nerdy and considered unattracive in the past xD
its true tbh. most "ugly" girls can be somewhat attractive with the right makeup. most guys though will fuck anything that moves so "ugly" tamara isnt ugly to them.

As in people of both genders?
I dont think she looked like a „hooker“ i think before and after she looked great and bomb both ways
And that word u used is awful to call someone or someones look/Style
I get to watch flicks I would never sit through for 1.5 hours, all condensed into 15 minutes. Excellent!
The teacher looking like Thomas Tuchel lol.
Yupp his face
I really like how you never mentioned the movie in the beginning nor in the description
The first sentence is saying the name of the movie. Its at the 6 second mark.
Chloe, jesse, teacher and his wife didnt deserve this, chloe and jesse just wanted some friends, teacher was just being nice to his student and he wanted a kid with the woman of his dreams, tamara did a bit too much, only keisha patrick and shaun deserved it
I disagree, I think what they did was horrible but not something worth being killed over, also she essentially raped an innocent guy because she forced him to have sex with someone who took advantage of women that makes her just as bad if not worse than him.
The part that I didn't understand in this movie was how did casting a love spell bring her back to life, and made her look like Allysa Milano from Charmed.
😂
Because she didn't break the spell when changed her mind therefore spell was still waiting for rest of ingredients i.e. her blood tp activate
Having actual powers gave her confidence to be what she has always wanted to be.
Not just blood, but the blood of a virgin.
Terrible ending the bullies won
Yeah only one survived second she tried for her teacher whole time n less about revenge she could have killed all of them one by one daily n then she should have go for her teacher after they were dead
Saw this film years ago, and thought Jenna Dewan was fantastic. Must have been difficult to hide her attractiveness before her character underwent that sexy makeover.
This movie was really good. Those bullies had it coming
What movie is this ???
@@mariahcrawford4639did u find out?
One of the most underrated movies ever made
where can you watch it
don't mess with the quit girl
Teacher looks younger than those students
I really did not understand why the teacher was involved. Just because that girl had a crush on him 😂
He mostly got involved cause he was so connected to it. And cause his wife got involved
She did a love spell bounding her n the teacher together she was finna complete the spell but she changed her mind n decided not 2 but when they killed Tamara her blood was spilled completing the spell so basically the evil teens started all of it bc if she wasn't killed nothing would of happened
I love Tamara. It was something new, fresh, unique, inventive, stylish, cool, edgy, hip, and updated such as the concept and theme. You have a good time with this movie. It's a guilty pleasure for me.😏 Jenna Dewan did a phenomenal and spectacular job portraying Tamara Riley as she put tons of emotion and depth into her role. It was decent. To this day I still watch it and I consider it a classic. It never gets old.😍💯😎👍
Damn Keisha short standing on picnic table and almost the same height as her boyfriend lol
Chloe has multiple personalities, she was in the entire prank, she knows it’s Tamara (AT LEAST FROM MY POINT OF VIEW, I RESPECT YOURS, SO I WON’T FORCE IT ON ANYONE, AS EVERYONE HAS DIFFERENT PERCEPTIONS) she even laughed, dint do anything to stop it, even tho she tried defending Tamara later, she was into it EARLIER. And I wouldn’t say Tamara is obsessed with witchcraft, she’s just dedicated. I don’t perceive it as obsessive. Her spell did worked but in a way she din’t exactly desired. I wonder why Tamara’s MALE HATERS still hated her tho even tho she went HOT. I dint quite understand the logic of the writer there, cause I would’ve made them like her, while the mean girls would envy her, but they’ll still all die. Other than that, this is PERSONALLY one of my favorite movies.
They still hate her cause her being attractive didn’t mean anything to them. It just creeped them out more. They were scared she was gonna say something
Karma is stronger than any spell work so be careful what you do. There was only 2 innocent people in this entire story in my opinion. The teacher and his wife were the 2 innocents the rest weren't innocent even if we didn't see it personally it was implied by who they were friends with. Friends are always like minded even if nobody knows it.
Those "I don't get in the middle of drama because I'm friends with everybody" enablers are the worst kind. They do less than the bare minimum but act like heroes for it.
I was rooting for Tamara...damn....
Reminds me of Carrie. Films with witches who use magic to harm others seem to be a regular feature of Hollywood horror movies these days.
Well this escalated quickly
Love Potion Number 9.
There should be a Carrie and Tamara crossover where they find another victim of bullying and they help the girl and kill the victims bullies for her while training her to get some power
They like a Joker when he's villains but he's a good guy
Hi I love your videos and the teacher is the only one that is nice to her
2:21 His acting skills :)
Bru if Tamara is unattractive then im a -2/10
truth hurts 💔
I think I just saw a similar story...
A Korean or Hong Kong horror movie? Where group of students killed their classmate. Then she returned the other day like nothing happened. They found out she was a ghost and killed them one by one.
also its similar to that one episode of girl from nowhere
i watched this a long long time ago , it was a okay movie for something that didnt comeout in theaters
I remember watching this in like 08 this movie so good 👍
I think that Tamara isn't the villian!
They are so similar to Aria and Ezra from Pretty Little Liars, and even share a similar story!!!
I don’t really know how to thank your *akor the great* you are sure a wonderful spiritualist ,your work is so amazed me keep it up,once again thanks for bring back my relationship back to me
Roger was just like the main character he didn't deserve to die
I’m finding it hard to believe there’s “Keshia” apart of the popular white kids.
😂
Movies back in the day were so casually dark about everything like just even making fun of someones suicide scars is like in passing in a scene lol
I remember watching this movie and boy this took me by surprise
It's like Carrie if she did witchcraft
Go watch Carrie. Much better version of this tired trope.
Which Carrie? If it's not the original, they ALL suck
This is basicaly me in high schooll minus killing people
No
I remember this movie. Weirdly I only watched it once and still remember it lol
Movie name?
Don't know why Tamara saw herself as unattractive I thought she was kinda pretty 😀
I still want a sequel or sumn
Jenna Dewan?? "Ugly?" LMAAAAO.
Why is her teacher so cute ? 😍. What's his name ? I'm in love
Honestly, Tamara should have survived. I think it's cruel that she suffered. If only she could have used magic to come back but less evil
...yeah...used magic and got trapped by her spell...in my bedroom...
She did survive in a way....she possesses Kisha at the end of the movie.
As is any practitioner would rip a page out of a hardback book. Let alone an antique and/or imported Occult tome. It beggars belief! 😸 Love spells going away though, that can definitely happen according to real world practitioners. Even worse if it's a specific person that doesn't have any love or attraction towards you already.
i wish there was a sequel i love this movie
0:25 "Sees how unattractive she is???" ...Even without the makeup, she looks better than 100% of the girls I've dated...and I'm sure that applies to all the dudes in the comments section too.😮
Why are you projecting little in cel??
@@RoundOfApplauseChannel 7 words...and i can already tell you're a Kamala voter.
Movie name please
This is so worth watching. What is this called? I missed it.
it’s called Tamara :)
This is why you do not mess with witchcraft 😢
And you don't torment your classmates.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Can someone post a link to the entire incident 🤦🏾♀️😂😂😂😂people are crazy
This movie was amazing!
Literally the only victims in the end were the teacher and his wife.
The bullies of course are murderers
Tamara while I do condone revenge she also tried to destroy a innocent family for her own selfish reasons making her no better than her bullies (also even if I think they are also in the wrong Chloe her boyfriend and the nerd guy didnt deserve death, some revenge? Yes but not death specially the gruesome death 2 of them had)
Chloe her boyfriend and the nerd guy were all enablers who allowed themselves to be blackmailed and coahersed into covering up a murder.
where did you get the Movie ''Tamara'' from?
This movie hits harder when you realize witches really exists in real life, ifykyk
So if women perform witchcraft then men performs wizardcraft?
Nope, just witchcraft for both as being a witch is a gender neutral thing.
Male witchcraft terms: A wizard is usually a male who dedicates his life to obtaining knowledge and wisdom through magic.
A sorcerer is a man who is a natural at manipulating energies and casting spells usually with a object like a magic wand or crystals like Harry Potter. They also usually use their powers for evil.
A magician is a guy who plays with magic for his own amusement or to entertain people.
A warlock is a male witch or someone who betrays their coven and gets banned from practicing magic openly.
@@psychedelicpayroll5412 I'd like know about sorcery
@@machine6143 Well I’m not into the occult even though I know I am smart enough to become a skilled witch. I found myself striving towards Christianity after my own experiences with the spirit realm and know the occult is playing with the spirit realm without Gods guidance to show what spirits are actually evil and masquerading as good. I just researched these terms and they do have specific qualifications.
@Light Remus I could care less about Harry Potter. I just mentioned him as a example. I said in my comment that I researched these terms myself. Only recently have males acquired the title witch and the terms were always gender separated. Plus I also mentioned the other definition of a warlock which is a guy who betrays his coven.
So what is the name of this movie?
She put Rodger in a genjutsu
What movie is this
Whats the movie called?
whats the movie name???
What makes her unattractive? So annoying. She’s still pretty. Are we supposed to believe that we’re ugly when we don’t wear makeup? Because that’s literally the only difference.
Hey anyone know the name of this movie ?
where can i watch this
