Platypuschow Witchcraft is the first of no less than 16 movies and that is highly impressive!It tells the story of a woman who goes to stay with her mother in law after she gives birth to her first child. Trouble is her husband and mother in law aren't what they seem and have ties to the occult.Watchcraft first of all is unforgivably boring, very little happens. I think it's doing this for the purpose of building tension but it fails miserably.When things do happen they look so poor as intended impact is lost.I do hope the franchise improves as I'm 1/16 and suffering already.The Good:The fact that the franchise lasted so long is impressiveThe Bad:Very boringUnoriginalGeneric cliched finaleThings I Learnt From This Movie:Witchcraft must get better or it wouldn't have lasted so long, right?
cmagu "Witchcraft" is a relatively unknown underground horror flick. Though the film has been received extremely bad reviews, it managed to spawn a total of twelve sequels (to date, at least).The plot of the film is similar to the earlier "Rosemary's Baby". Grace Churchill has given birth to her first child, when her husband temporarily moves them in with his mother. While staying in her mother-in-laws creepy, old mansion, Grace begins experiencing bizarre incidents that lead her to believe her new family isn't what they seem.Honestly, I'm not sure why this movie got such bad reviews from people. The only real problem I found with it was the editing style - which gives the film the look of an episode of "Murder, She Wrote". The sets of the film are quite creepy. The acting (by a primarily newcomer cast) is good. The music (though performed on a synthesizer) fits the tone of the film.All in all, "Witchcraft" isn't an Oscar winning film, but it's a interesting way to pass 90 minutes.
smeagher2830 I cannot believe that anyone finds this movie half-way tolerable. The acting is kind of like a train wreck (maybe by design)I just sat there in disbelief for 90 mins amazed at how truly terrible the cast was. Could Grace (Anat Topol) be any more stiff in her role and what's the deal with her living with her in-law, she's in no condition to go to her home to recuperate yet perfectly fine to do chores around the house at her mother in laws. The only good thing that I can say about this movie is for all of the '80s nostalgia people you will find all of the hairstytles and outfits the perfect tonic for taking you back to the good old days. The husband has a terrific hockey hairddo. I bought this stinker on Ebay for .99 and am trying to sell it for .01 with no bites...can't say I am surprised.Avoid at all costs!!!!!!
brandonsites1981 Rosemary's Baby clone about a new mother who goes with her infant son and husband to live with her mother-in-law, but soon discovers that they are both Satan worshippers and are intent on making her baby the antichrist. Poorly done and acted horror film with no on screen action for over 2/3's of the feature and a lame ending. Rated R; Violence.
