Two Witches

"Two Witches" follows two different women in semi-overlapping stories who are targeted by an aging witch attempting to utilize them for two different reasons.

This directorial debut by Pierre Tsigaridis is a ghoulish romp from start to finish, replete with disturbing imagery and some effective scenes of violence. While it does virtually nothing to reinvent the wheel, the film does utilize the tropes of the witch-themed films of the '60s an '70s fairly effectively, and at its best, offers some haunting visual compositions and noble attempts at tying these two stories together. Despite some press and reviews I've read, it is really not an anthology film, as each story overlaps the other; the common denominator is the nefarious witch each woman encounters.

While I appreciate what the filmmakers attempted to do in terms of grafting these two tales into a single film, the execution is at times not the most graceful, and some of the editing choices (specifically an overuse of flashy jump cuts and blackouts) feel maladroit and overdone. The film is replete with homages to a number of classic horror films, with the first entry tipping its hat to "Rosemary's Baby" in more ways than one; the second story, which is perhaps slightly more engaging than the first, has more than a few visual nods to Dario Argento's "Suspiria", specifically the ornate and gothic bedroom chamber of the film's villainous witch, which heavily resembles that featured in "Suspiria".

Although the film's second story stumbles in its conclusion with a handful of narrative gaps that lack clarity, the segment overall is bolstered by a nervy, deranged performance from Rebekah Kennedy that really stands out. Kristina Klebe (known to genre fans for her role in Rob Zombie's "Halloween" remake) is also a nice presence, though her role is not especially substantial here.

Overall, while "Two Witches" is not a revelatory piece, it is truly entertaining, and offers enough standout visuals to keep genre fans engaged. While the weaving together of the two-part story doesn't fully land, I appreciate what the filmmakers were attempting to do here. Despite its lack of connective tissue, it is certainly one of the better indie horror movies I've seen in awhile. 6/10.

... and not every friend on the set of this picture should have been invited to the party, but there are some very effective moments - some scary, some creepy, some gory. Both lead actresses are appealing enough to carry along the rest of the amateur cast (obvious "May" vibes aside). Watched this on Halloween and definitely felt seasonally satisfied. To top it all off, the film sets up its own franchise universe. In short, this film delivers everything you'd expect from a studio film - and it didn't waste a ton of money just to disappoint like a lot of blumhouse productions of late.

Bring it on my witches - i'm ready for your next chapter!

Put this on fot a 2nd watch because I remember the other year putting it on and leaving it in background as I thought it started bit flat then got sucked in at end. It does feel low budget at first but has some great effects for spooky witchy scenes. I also like the guy barging in at end. Thump. Though this didn't all end how I remembered & it says to be continued and would've liked a part 2 or this to be longer film and completed. There was the odd character U would've liked left in for a face off. Yes the girl playing marsha is good at being super creepy & annoying. She has really angular features to give off that pointy witch possessed look. Its problem is it doesnt mix the chapters together properly I just j Goes off key jumping incohesively to something else. I would've liked to see this run & intricated together a lot better. Theres no denying though they did a excellent job on all the witches appearance for a low budget.. bigger budget with better weaved and fleshed out story & they could've had a blockbuster. Ive not checked if they ever brought out a part 2 but they should because its left open & I would be interested in seeing the next chapters as it ends where it looks like there's about to be something big happening.

I can't think of a better way to kick off the spooky season. This movie is so dark and good that it left me speechless. TWO WITCHES feels like an homage to Italian Horror. It feels like a Mario Bava picture, with brutality comparable to the works of Lucio Fulci. The acting is great, the score is terrific and the amount of blood and guts quenched my thirst for violence.

It's a well crafted movie about (you guessed it) two evil witches that torment a group of innocent people. No one is safe, and the movie doesn't hold back in terms of shock value. It's the spookiest movie I've watched this year, and I think that you will enjoy it.

Now, the concept idea of "Two Witches" definitely sounded interesting from the movie's synopsis, and a movie with witchcraft is usually always something fun to watch. And as such, I opted to sit down and watch the 2021 horror movie "Two Witches" from writers Kristina Klebe, Maxime Rancon and Pierre Tsigaridis without actually having heard of the movie prior to watching it.

The storyline was somewhat of a chaotic heap for me. I didn't enjoy being constantly bombarded with random footage that was supposed to be something like impressions or visions? It was just distracting and grew tiring really fast. So director Pierre Tsigaridis's 2021 movie "Two Witches" was a swing and a miss in terms of entertaining me.

I gave up on watching the movie, because the way that the movie was constructed and presented didn't appeal to my particular preference and taste in movies and entertainment. So the fact that the storyline had some appeal just fell to the ground. And I have zero interest in returning to finish watching "Two Witches".

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in this movie, and despite of me not enjoying the movie in general, I will say that the actors and actresses were doing fair enough jobs. It wasn't their fault that the writing was inadequate and that the director was all over the place.

I am sure that there is an audience out there for a movie such as "Two Witches", I just happened not to be in that particular target audience. I am not sure how true the movie was to actual witchcraft.

My rating of "Two Witches" lands on a generous three out of ten stars, given the production value of the movie.
