I remember seeing this movie back when I was a teenager in the late 1980s. The movie was lots of fun back then and still is today, which is a noteworthy feat in itself. I have watched "Elvira: Mistress of the Dark" more than five times since first having on VHS - ah yes, those were the days - and it keeps being as entertaining as it was then.
It is the light-hearted comedy and atmosphere of the movie that makes it well-worth watching again and again. But also the acting performances in the movie. Of course the role of Elvira being so amazingly performed by Cassandra Peterson; she is just wonderfully charming, witty and well-cast for the Elvira character. But also William Morgan Sheppard deserved applause here, because he really suits the villain role quite well.
The story in "Elvira: Mistress of the Dark" is a magical story which includes scares (sort of), action, sorcery and lots and lots of humor.
"Elvira: Mistress of the Dark" is a wholeheartedly fun spooky (without actually being spooky) movie that can be seen by the entire Family. It is a good movie for a Halloween movie marathon.
I enjoy this movie quite a lot and haven't seen it for the last time, that much is for certain.
