782 MIrror Mirror (1990)

 This  is  a  tepid  run through  Carrie  territory  with a  demon lurking in an old mirror taking  over a  bullied  Goth  girl and facilitating her  revenge against her tormentors. Karen  Black  is  top-billed as  her  mother  but  is  rather  wasted. There's  nothing particularly bad  about  the  film: it  just  never  rises above mediocre.

Rainbow Harvest ( as Megyn )

Sex : Megyn is felt up by the demon in the mirror

Death : Megyn is killed offscreen by the demon


Rainbow was born in New York and that is her real name. She broke into films and TV  in the mid-eighties. She met her husband , actor Kevin Wixted on the set of the TV  series 21 Jump St  in 1988 and dropped out  of acting while still in her mid-twenties. She now worksfor the Otis Elevator Company.

She is married to a screenwriter and has been inactive for the last few years.

Charlie Spradling ( as Charlene )

Sex : Charlene has a fumble with her boyfriend 

Death : Charlene is scalded to death in  the shower at  Megyn's behest

She had a reasonably successful film and TV career in  the  nineties but  eventually quit acting and made a successful transition into magazine publishing. She was previously married to Lost Boys actor  Jason London.
