Vicki's transformation

Just watched this for the first time last night, and really enjoyed it. But I didn't think much of it early on and thought it was too tame and the lead a bit boring. I didn't think Wendy Lyon was very cute at all, but once Mary Lou inhabits her, and her demeanor changed, I found her pretty hot. Just goes to show what a slight change in makeup and a big change in demeanor can do. Sex appeal is very much attitude, at least as much as looks, and maybe more so. I loved Vicki/Mary Lou coming on to the principal and her dad (Hold me daddy! Ha!).

Well done Wendy Lyon. She did a great job making the possessed Vicki different from the mousier real Vicki.

Very true. Although I'm a sucker for blondes so I thought she was very cute from the start. But yes, she became hotter for sure and more desirable.

Lisa Schrage (Mary Lou), was not bad at all for a brunette also, lol. She has beautiful blue eyes and man did I love the very first scene in the confession booth, haha. Set the tone for the character right away!

Two actresses that we didn't really see much in movies after that... :(

Yeah, I thought Lisa Schrage was very good in her few scenes as well, particularly the confessional scene. Too bad we didn't get the sort of eye candy from her that we got from Wendy Lyon.
