Seduced by Evil (1994)
Nomination Year: 1995
SYNOPSIS: Suzanne Somers stars as a Southwestern magazine reporter who does an article on a handsome recluse. Little does she know that the swarthy Hispanic is really a
brujo, a shape-changing South American warlock. The
brujo is after Suzanne because she's the reincarnation of his long-lost love, and he'll stop at nothing to claim her, body and soul. When she (barely) manages to resist him, he kidnaps her daughter. Mistake.

Maybe He Was Just Really, Really Surprised Suzanne Somers confronts the evil warlock on top of a mesa where he holds her daughter captive in a ring of magical fire. He's all-powerful, and she's just a stressed-out single mom. Yet, without warning and for no reason, Suzanne turns into a wolf and pushes him off the cliff, killing him. Hm. Not only did she develop mystical powers out of the frickin' blue, but it seems the brujo clean forgot that he could turn himself into a raven and fly, as he did in nearly every other scene in which he appeared.

The Miracle of Self-Editing Tape We hear Suzanne's friend (the one who finds out first that the guy is a brujo and thus must die) speak her last words into a tape recorder. She leaves the tape in Suzanne's mailbox. Suzanne, of course, doesn't find the tape until after the funeral. When she plays it, the words are subtly but distinctly different from the previous scene. Did her friend's ghost do some trivial editing from beyond the grave?
