A young girl from a strange religious minority wins a scholarship to a preparatory school where bullying ( and worse ) by a group of mean girls eventually compels her to use supernatural powers to wreak a dramatic revenge. Hold on, haven't we been here before ? This film borrows so much from Carrie it's virtually a re-make though the climax is pretty weedy by comparison. If you can overlook the larceny it's entertaining enough.
