    As in, are there any other supernatural "coming of age" films? The only ones I've seen that come close are The Craft which I thought was okay but it could've been so much better. The other is the Lost Boys, I thought that was okay but unlike The Craft I couldn't see much room that it could've improved on.
    Are there any other supernatural "coming of age" films out there? Or have I pretty much seen all there is.

      There's "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," the TV show. The movie was pure tongue in cheek, which was the only way Joss Whedon could get it made.

        I've already seen the Buffy TV show and the movie. I've even reviewed them.

          Well, but you asked and didn't disqualify them. It seems we agree almost 100 percent on Buffy, except I thought the idea of an utterly stupid, vain God was a good one.
          I guess I'll read the rest of your reviews.

            Thankfully I tend to keep my reviews short. Those reviews that you read, that's probably the longest I try to write a review. Detailed but not too detailed.
            One review that I'm sure we can agree on is this one:

              There's Neil Jordan's The Company of Wolves, which also uses metaphors for puberty. However, it is a straight horror film.

                Thanks. I know of the film's existence and I DO want to see it. The question is finding it.

                  Wait. Scratch that. I found a version that is watchable off the internet.
                  Usually if I watch a movie off the internet I like, I buy a copy hence I paid to see it. If I don't like it I don't pay for it. Its past midnight here so I'll watch it tomorrow.
