Witch Hunt

Probably too many budget restrictions.

Scenes feels too slow .

I wanted to like it better.

It is watchable, and maybe a female audience will enjoy it better then the male ones?

Cheers.

Why are people dogging this movie? It has a fully fleshed-out concept with good character development and acting. The main actor explores a lot of emotions as she comes of age and faces danger and the law. So it ties some current events as themes in its fantasy story.... So what!

The movie has multiple plot lines and depth. They used their budget well and the pacing is solid. The effects are cool and the witchiness is mysterious and frowned upon by the scared normals. It's kind of like the early X-Men movies in this regard.

I watch all types of movies (mostly horror and drama) and this kept my interest. It also has a cool old American style with all the furniture and cars. People have this stuff and smartphones, MacBooks, etc.

I was entertained by this.

This was more of a kids movie unlike the movie art show. It's also a pretty boring movie. The modern US would never kill off people that can become a military advantage. If fact these witches would be on the government payroll.

Witch Hunt is set in an alternative modern day USA in which witches are hunted, tried and executed. A teenage girl and her mother in Southern California help accused women find safety but their lives change for good when the daughter is charged with being a witch. This is an interesting idea and makes a change to the slew of modern zombie, vampire and slasher movies, sadly the reason for this draconian and horrific state of affairs is not explained. This is a fairly mild horror movie, perhaps supernatural fantasy or thriller would best describe it. I would say that the target audience is teenage girls and female twenty somethings but as a middle aged man I found this to be a reasonable time filler. The acting is OK but the CGI effects look quite cheap, there are some incredibly generous reviews on here, take these with a pinch of salt! One of the most memorable scenes has girls being ducked by witch finders in a school swimming pool, fair play to the makers to come up with that!

The trailer looked promising however I gave up after about 45 minutes. I liked the premise of the film, however there is no explanation of how a death squad was hunting the witches and how they are relevant in modern society.

The pacing was also terribly slow, which didn't help at all.

Overall had potential but poorly executed.
