_**A Tale of Two Sororities with telekinesis and the occult**_ Twin sisters (Mika Boorem & Summer Glau) start college in Louisiana where the former joins a sorority of outcasts while the latter is accepted by an uppity sorority. Both houses have uncanny secrets. Costars include: JoAnna Garcia, Jennifer Tilly and Morgan Fairchild. "The Initiation of Sarah" (2006) is a remake of the 1978 television movie that was a knockoff of “Carrie” (1976) mixed with “Satan’s School for Girls” (1973). Fairchild returns here to play the mother of the two girls. This is more of a revamping than a faithful remake as the only thing that’s the same is the basic set-up, which I’m fine with because who needs an exact repeat? There’s also a change in tone. The original flick was relatively realistic with weighty drama whereas this one is decidedly comic booky with unbelievable paranormal happenings and cheesy satanic rituals. The garish opening sequence tells all. The two protagonists aren’t as likable either. On the positive side, JoAnna Garcia is beautiful (despite the devious character she plays) and Jennifer Tilly is more fascinating than Shelley Winters’ character in the original. There are also some thought-provoking new ideas. Unfortunately, the dull first act and the tedious fiery climax with the corresponding gobbledygook doom it. The movie runs 1 hour, 28 minutes, and was shot at Centenary College, Shreveport, Louisiana. GRADE: C-/C
