About The Love Witch
Elaine, a beautiful young witch, is determined to find a man to love her. In her gothic Victorian apartment, she makes spells and potions, and then picks up men and seduces them. However, her spells work too well, leaving her with a string of hapless victims. When she finally meets the man of her dreams, her desperation to be loved will drive her to the brink of insanity and murder. [120 min; comedy, horror; English]
"A hilarious and pointed examination of sexuality through meticulous retro pastiche with some highly entertaining performances, The Love Witch revels in its blend of thoughtfulness with B-movie camp." — Kambole Campbell, One Room With A View
"A veritable orgy of sinful cinematic tropes, re-purposed and re-imagined for a new time by an artist working at the top of her game." — Mattie Lucas, From the Front Row
"The Love Witch goes beyond camp, beyond pastiche; it ignites the pulpy surfaces of its tale and produces a smoke of bad-dream sexiness and scariness. It's a B-movie with A-grade potency." — Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
