BLACK SUNDAY (1960) & THE WITCH (2015) Episode 77: Witches Be Witches (Witches!)

Send us a text

WoHos!

This week Mac's genre pick is Witches! We looked at the directorial debuts of two masters and their masterpieces: Mario Bava's BLACK SUNDAY and Robert Eggers' THE WITCH.

Content preview: Mac is househunting, and Mom is trying to squeeze the most enjoyment out of her summer unstructured time before she goes back into the classroom in a few weeks. We both cater A LOT to our cats, Branwen and Rosey.

Mac's Picks for June: Reanimator, The Hollowman
Mom's picks for June: Night of the Hunter, The Midnight Meat Train, Tetsuo: The Iron Man
Mom's Shout Outs: Drag Mitch to Hell (Mom was on the Season 3 opener) & Cronenberg Or Cats (Mac will appear on 7/23 to discuss A GIRL WALKS HOME ALONE at NIGHT  & Mom will appear on 9/10 to discuss CAT PEOPLE 1942)!

Mom enjoyed BLACK SUNDAY more than Mac, but that might be because she did more research to fill in the blanks of the script. Mac likes THE WITCH more than he did on previous watches, but Mom's opinion remains the same.

Some questions remain: Do either of these films have a happy ending? Who's worse: Dr. Kruvajan or William? How serious are Mac's viewers on that whole green card marriage thing?

Next time it's Mom's pick and I have chosen Nature Horror. We will look at BACKCOUNTRY from Canada & LAKE PLACID from the US.

Listen, WoHos! We love you! DON'T go into the basement!

Can't get enough of us?
