As the spookiest of holidays approaches, Randy (the random number generator) has selected an appropriately themed film for us to watch. That is, if we can handle all of these darn thrills and chills.
But with Benjamin Christensen's seminal half-documentary/half-historical fiction approach to his study on the history of medieval witchcraft, a rapid-fire mix of visual delights and horrors leads the audience into a terrifying world of witches, potions, curses, torture, mad monks, and Satan himself. And get this: Christensen dares to use his topic to address contemporary social and mental health concerns. Horror movies can't do that...can they?!
If you'd like to watch ahead for next week's film, we will be discussing and reviewing Bruce Robinson's Withnail & I (1987).
