Messe nere per le vergini svedesi

VIRGIN WITCH is about sisters, Christine and Betty (Ann and Vicki Michelle). While auditioning for a modeling job, Christine gets mixed up with the odd, leering Sybil Waite (Patricia Haines). This leads to a photo shoot for Christine, with Betty along for the experience.

Sybil takes them to a secluded estate, where the weirdness factor explodes exponentially. Of course, the title comes into play, and Sybil's eeevil plans are revealed.

VW is one of those early 1970's movies out of England, replete with one nude scene after another. Have no fear, no excuse to show naked females has been overlooked. This is one of those "art films" that our wily ancestors would have snuck off to see. Those raised on the internet will find little to see here that could possibly rise above quaint or tame. Still, it fits right in with other such films of its era.

REASONS TO WATCH: #1- There's much fun to be had in the quick camera zoom-ins to extreme facial closeups! #2- The out-of-nowhere, jazzy musical interlude at the Stag Room is actually pretty good! #3- Christine's initiation ceremony is a hoot! #4- The silliest head-flailing, body-twitching finale to any soft-core occult movie, ever! Ever!...

'Allo 'allo, it's tasty British sitcom star Vicki Michelle revealing much more than she ever did on TV, accompanied by her almost as sexy and even more uninhibited sister Ann. The curvaceous pair star as Christine (Ann) and Betty (Vicki), beautiful siblings who are drawn into a coven of witches after Christine accepts a job with lesbian modelling agent/high priestess Sybil Waite (Patricia Haines).

Despite its witchcraft theme, Virgin Witch film is less about the supernatural and more about getting its lovely stars completely naked as often as possible; as such, the film is almost completely devoid of scares but packed with nudity and sex, with hardly a minute passing without one or both of the girls stripping off for a nude photo-shoot, bath, shower, or romp in the woods. Even when they're dressed, the girls wear the shortest mini-skirts possible!

The wild Wiccan rituals in which the sisters participate are the film's sleazy high-points (or is that 'low-points'?), the girls being offered to the coven's lucky leader Gerald (Neil Hallett) for sex while his naked acolytes cavort around them in ecstasy, the scenes lit in garish primary colours, the camera swinging crazily to and fro. The frenetic finale is particularly bonkers, degenerating into a wild orgy of writhing bodies, precisely who is doing what to whom being virtually unfathomable.

7.5 out of 10, rounded up to 8 for IMDb.

Wot a brilliant movie and a chance to see Vikke Michelle as a 22 year old girl.

Vikki became a household name in the UK in her 40s by playing Yvette the saucy French waitress in the hit comedy series Allo Allo In Virgin witch she is a gorgeous 22 year old , starr ing in the movie with her real life sister.

Patricia Haines is gorgeous too as the older woman, a lesbian who has the hots for these two sisters who are spending a weekend at the country house where witchcraft ceremonies are practiced.

It is a visual treat, the house , the lovely garden, and Vikke Michelle a guest at the house, exploring and learning all the wicked secrets and ceremonies that go on there.

The film is of its time, the early 70s when Hammer Horror and occult movies were still in vogue,

This film is another one in that genre, a treat, a delight and a showcase for the lovely Vikki Michelle..... sigh !

Hardly very 'extreme' but I have a soft spot for this. Anne Michelle stars (with her sister) and through the course of the film develops from a mini skirted dolly bird to a rather convincing coven priestess. The girls look great in their tiny skirts and without their clothes so the fact the plot line is not up to much barely matters, as it were. We get sex, lots of nudity, witchcraft scenes indoors and out and a girlie magazine shoot. That's about it really and there are slight threads involving the deposed priestess's lusting for young Anne and a young man's attempts at rescuing the younger sister from the Sabat. It's pretty, it's English and it moves along. Can't say fairer than that.

This is a nice piece of time-wasting British exploitation cinema with the delectable Michelle sisters becoming embroiled in witchcraft and various sexy shenanigans in a picturesque country-house setting ('filmed on location in Surrey, England').

There's a good score by Ted Dicks, including a rather seductive little tune called 'You go your way', performed by Helen Downing. And effective turns by old-hands like Neil Hallett (as the lecherous head of the coven) and Keith 'Excalibur' Buckley as the excitable investigative boyfriend. A highpoint is the scene-stealing performance by the lovely Patricia Haines ('The Night Caller') as the lesbian boss of a dodgy model agency. She, along with the sisters, disrobes in the hilarious 'initiation ritual' sequence.

Get hold of the 1993 Redempton VHS - a good, colourful print.
