The Love Witch
A modern-day witch uses spells and magic to get men to fall in love with her, with deadly consequences.
Why it matters
A visually hypnotic dive into 1960s technicolor horror and camp, filtered through a feminist-fueled witch’s deadly love spells.
- A lavish retro aesthetic that’s practically a love letter to Hammer and Euro horror—every frame a meticulously crafted tableau.
- Anna Biller’s auteur vision blends satire, melodrama, and supernatural dread with a feminist edge that unsettles as much as it enchants.
- Not your typical horror narrative—more mood piece than jump-scare fest, perfect for fans of cult cinema and stylized genre experiments.
- The story’s uneven, but its obsessive devotion to period detail and subversive themes rewards patient viewers craving something off the beaten path.
