This January, ‘Spell’ Comes Home On Blu-ray And DVD

Spell, which we call “spooky as Hell” in our 5/5 review, is coming to home video! Omari Hardwick (“Power,” Sorry to Bother You), Loretta Devine (“Black-ish,” Crash), and John Beasley (The Sum of All Fears, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks) star in the terrifying thriller directed by Mark Tonderai and written by Kurt Wimmer.
