Witchcraft Through The Ages
Grave robbing, torture, possessed nuns and a satanic Sabbath: Danish director Benjamin Christensen's legendary film uses a series of dramatic vignettes to explore the scientific hypothesis that the witches of the middle ages suffered the same hysteria as turn-of-the-century psychiatric patients.But the film itself is far from serious -- instead it's a witches' brew of the scary, gross, and darkly humorous.The Criterion Collection is proud to present to versions of this genre-defying "documentary," for the first time ever on DVD.
