Re: Tonight's Monday Chat/Film Viewing: "Black Magic"/"Meeting at Midnight"

I thought this film was somewhat lackluster. Frances Chan is cute but didn't add much else IMHO. Her use of "Pop" sounded forced, not natural like #1 and #2 sons. Toler seems to be sleepwalking through this one although he gets off the occasional good line.

Frances- "Wait till the folks back home see me - I'll knock their eyes out.")
CC- You are, perhaps, pugilist?

The scared black man routine has been used before and is tiresome. This was only the second film I got from Netflix that got one viewing and was sent back.
