Witch watch: The Reckoning ending explained

18th February 2021 by Sarah

Naturally this is spoilery about the full-on ending (and a couple of other things). My review is here if you want to read it. I am not a monster so I am not going to make you read the whole article to discover that, yes, adorable baby Abi SURVIVES. I know films don’t usually kill… Witch watch: The Reckoning ending explained Read More

The Reckoning 2 stars☆☆☆☆☆

18th February 2021 by Sarah

As the plague rages across England, a young widow with a baby daughter is accused of witchcraft. I don’t know if anyone’s ever tried to draw a Venn diagram of misogynists through the ages and the wearing of ridiculous headwear, but I bet there’s a considerable overlap. There are horrible hats a-plenty in Neil Marshall’s… The Reckoning Read More

Suspiria (1977) 3.5 stars☆☆☆☆☆

9th October 2018 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Lurid, stylised, and inescapable, if it feels like that for us watching, imagine what it’s like for poor Suzy Bannion (Jessica Harper), new student at the famous German… Suspiria (1977) Read More

Anna Biller as Barbi in 1970s-set sex comedy Viva

“The style that a lot of people attribute to B-movies and melodramas is just classical, theatrical acting… and all of my actors were classically trained. So they have strong voices, they speak clearly and enunciate. I have a musical ear, so I like to listen to actors with beautiful voices” Anna Biller After watching writer/director Anna Biller’s 2016… Myths, Melodrama & Swedish Meatballs – Q&A With Love Witch Director Anna Biller Read More

The Witch 4 stars☆☆☆☆☆

5th March 2017 by Sarah Leave a Comment

The long hot summer had pretty much done for the triffid invasion on planet earth

A missing baby, an evil woman lurking in the woods… as a straight-up horror film about witchcraft The Witch is frighteningly effective; though it’s also about the descent into psychological warfare within a previously loving family. Even with its living breathing monsters, it can still be interpreted as solely an allegory birthed from over-fertile imaginations; though whichever view… The Witch Read More
