1989's "Witch Story" brings the ways of Italian genre filmmaking to Florida for a tale of possession and partying. Co-writer/director Alessandro Capone doesn't have much in the way of budgetary power to help the endeavor, and he's not particularly strong with pacing and performance either. "Witch Story" has some bits and pieces of peculiarity to hold attention, but it's not an inspired take on supernatural and satanic happenings. Capone has slasher formula to follow, but suspense isn't invited to the picture, with most of the movie struggling to generate a level of panic the story initially promises.
