“The Covenant” is one of those movies that I know will be shredded to pieces by mainstream critics, get lost in the theaters, but will eventually do very well on DVD — at least enough to warrant a couple of sequels or a franchise or two. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if this turned out to be the next “The Prophecy” franchise, another movie that died in theaters but found a cult following on DVD and has spawn no less than four sequels. “The Covenant’s” got 20-something kids playing High School teens with superpowers and witches. The trailer is full of super power goodies, which should draw the fanboys in all their fanboy glory. But I know it will probably suck anyway. Having said that, I’ll still eagerly grab it when it hits DVD. My comic book geekness just loves this crap.
