**_Castle-in-the-woods of Italy_** Several youths partake in a Rock TV-sponsored competition at a castle north of Rome to win $1 million, but the lord of the castle has diabolic plans (Adam Ant). "Spellcaster" (1988) is castle-oriented horror in the tradition of “The Devil’s Nightmare” (1971), but mixed with the 80’s vibe of “Doom Asylum” (1987) and the cartoonish effects of “Necromancer” (1988). It’s cut from the same cloth as soon-to-come flicks "Howling V: The Rebirth" (1989) and "Subspecies" (1991), but it’s the least of all of these. Although the 80’s ambiance is good and there’s some fun spookiness à la Scooby-Doo (minus the dog), the story’s just not very compelling or scary and the characters are rather dull. Meanwhile Adam Ant doesn’t appear until the very end (not that I care, but those interested would want to know). Traci Lind (Yvette) and Kim Johnston Ulrich (Teri) stand out on the female front. Also on hand are Gail O'Grady as the winsome protagonist and Bunty Bailey as the drunken rock star. The other two blondes are basically interchangeable and negligible. Speaking of which, all the women are curiously blondes. How about a brunette or redhead to spice things up? The movie runs 1 hour, 23 minutes, and was shot a dozen miles northeast of Rome at Odescalchi Castle on Lake Bracciano. GRADE: C+
