Lawbolisted Powerful
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
FountainPen Where to start? This movie is such a mish-mash, such a hodge-podge. Hasselhoff plays Hasselhoff, including scenes with his shirt off to display his slightly hairy and muscular chest, ha ha ha. Linda Blair doesn't go topless, though, and that might have been her redemption for the performance she put in. Hildegarde Kneff was the star for me, with her bewitching accent and ominous posing. Delicious. The "plot" is a laugh. The rape scene is unpleasant. A few scenes of violence are quite well-done, e.g. the lip-sewing, while some others seem to be from the 1950s, lamentable and amateurish. This film dates from 1988, just before Hasselhoff made his mark in Baywatch, but years after Blair had spun her head around and thrown up green soup in The Exorcist. HA HA HA HA HA Rates a 3 overall for me... worth watching for the overall amusement, but it is a BAD movie.
queenankh I have only seen it a few times but each time it freaked me out! I'm not a horror fan by any means, usually I can't take it but this film is unique in it's ability to entertain you. I remember curling up in my best friend's bed as we watched a pregnant woman jump out of window to avoid the creepy Lady in Black. I loved the attempt to be recreate the fear and paranoia of Agatha Christie's "Ten Little Indians" (1965), while using The Hoff to move the story on. That's all he is there for. As the photographer with the virgin girlfriend on the premises without permission, it does seem a little obvious what will happen but it's still cool. I gave it an 8/10 because I really enjoyed the film. I know it's no blockbuster and it's not exactly well made but I still like it.
Leonard Smalls: The Lone Biker of the Apocalypse "Witchery" is a decent little Euro-Trash horror yarn! David Hasselhoff is pretty damn funny in this one and sadly, he's one of the better actors. Linda Blair is downright terrible and the lady who plays Hoff's wife...she is hilariously bad! The plot of this film is ridiculous too. It's got some holes, which you can't help but notice, but it remains entertaining throughout.The gore in "Witchery" is freaking outstanding. I loved the part where the old bag gets "sucked" into the trash chute and ends up in the chimney to roast! And the part where the lady "gets taken advantage of" by the Devil was pretty damned disturbing. I'd say this one is a must for gorehounds.If you're looking for an overproduced, well-acted flick, look elsewhere. But if you like old-school style Italian sleaze and over the top gore, "Witchery" belongs on your shelf.I'm surprised by the low rating on here! What were you people expecting, "The Exorcist?" 7 out of 10, kids.
