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 !

The real-life Michelle sisters, Ann ("Psychomania") and Vicki ('Allo! 'Allo!) are an extremely delectable pair of sibling birds who strike out on their own, arriving in London. Christine (Ann M.) hooks up with a shady modelling agency run by the mysterious Sybil (sexy Patricia Haines, 'The Avengers'), and with Betty (Vicki M.) in tow, travels to a remote estate for some supposed shoots that will be done. But, of course, the agency is a front for a witches coven. Betty becomes concerned when the impressionable and headstrong Christine decides that she likes what she sees, and wants to know more about becoming a witch.
With the 1970s being a fairly relaxed time for censorship, and with interest in the occult becoming part of the public consciousness, it led to the rise of enjoyably sleazy British horror films like this one. It's rather slow at times, and not always terribly interesting, but does redeem itself with its generous doses of trashiness. Female nudity is abundant, and even when Ann isn't removing her clothes, the two lovely ladies are often to be seen wearing some very short miniskirts. To add more spice, Sybil is a lesbian with a definite interest in Christine, and who resents guys like photographer Peter (James Chase, "The Leather Boys") moving in on her.
The performances are quite entertaining throughout, with Neil Hallett ('The Newcomers') adding more than a touch of class as a kindly "doctor" who introduces Christine to the wonders of the occult. Keith Buckley ("Excalibur") plays Betty's boyfriend, determined to free her from this spooky environment.
Most of the time, the film is mildly amusing, but it does kick things into a higher gear for some climactic rituals involving disrobing. Most of the nudity in "Virgin Witch" is female, but some dudes do drop their trousers, too.
Supplemented by a rich music score by Ted Dicks, "Virgin Witch" is decent fun for people who love this era in British filmmaking.
Filmed at the same location as Norman J. Warrens' "Satan's Slave".
Six out of 10.

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!...

A girl gets a job for a modeling agency, only to later discover that it's all a cover to recruit young girls for a coven of witches. Her sister and her sister's boyfriend get dragged along on the adventure.
The plot here is a little shaky. While the goals of the coven aren't really revealed, and the modeling agency may or may not be real (they never explicitly say), there is a definite story. Whether or not it's enough story to really matter is up to the viewer, I suppose.
The obvious reason this film was made was not to make a horror film or a classic film or any other type of film except one: a movie where two sisters (as well as many others) are naked in approximately 90% of the movie. In the modeling agency, in a field, on a car, in a witch's ceremony, in bed... I didn't time it, but to say that 90% of the film has nudity is really not much of a stretch.
According to Wikipedia, "The film has subsequently been disowned by its sibling stars Ann and Vicki Michelle. Vicki's website makes no reference to the film, while Ann's cryptically refers to it as 'not an experience Ann cares to remember'." I suppose this shouldn't surprise me. Although one (if not both) of the girls became known from this film, it's not really something you want to say was your crowning achievement.
The witch aspects were done very well, with the ceremony and explanation of the high priest's role very believable. The topic of magic was very minimal, which I guess is unfortunate, but it didn't take away from the witch storyline as much as you might think.
On a personal note, my biggest disappointment with this film is the choice of the leading actress. The sister is far more attractive than the lead, so I would have rather their roles were reversed. This way, the attractive one would have more on-screen nudity. Although, if you're watching this to get turned on (as the tagline implies) you might be let down: after the first fifteen minutes, the nudity was so pervasive it wasn't even that odd anymore (like living in a nudist colony).
If you're into exploitation films and horror films, this is worth checking out. The plot is thin, the acting decent and the nudity excessive. Hey, some people go for that -- they made a whole market of the stuff. I expected much worse from this, so I guess I can't complain and would not even be opposed to owning it if it was available for a reasonable price.

The difference between a British sleaze film of the 1970s and an American sleaze film of the 1970s is that the British film is well acted and features interesting locations. "Virgin Witch," quite possibly the quintessential sleaze film of the 1970s, manages both. It's not that the film is not exploitative and rather insulting to women, it's just that one would have to take it seriously to take offense. The film stars real-life sisters Ann and Vicki Michelle as an ambitious career woman (Ann) and a repressed virgin (Vicki) who leave their strict parents and come to London. On the way they meet Johnny (Keith Buckley), in one of those 1970s movie coincidences, and he develops a bone for Vicki. Meanwhile, Ann answers an advert for a model and is "auditioned" by lesbian agent Sybil Waite (Patricia Haines), who invites her up for the weekend at a manor house owned by Gerald Amberly (Neil Hallet), a sort of proper Hugh Hefner, who is (of course) also the leader of a coven of witches. Ann (character name "Christine") is all for it, even the attentions of Sybil, if that's what it takes to get ahead, but Vicki (Betty) is still repressed. Sex rites ensue. In fact, the coven really isn't much into black magic at all, just sex games. Suffice it to say that the film did not have much of a costume budget. It would be a lot easier to dismiss this film as so much trash if it were not decently acted, particularly by Haines and Hallet. Ann Michelle--a kind of road company Martine Beswick--also does well under the direction...at least under the camera pointing...of stuntman-turned-director Ray Austin. There's nothing scary about this "horror" film, and truth be told, even with the vast amount of nudity, there's nothing very erotic about it either. It's a time capsule of a particular era of very strange British thriller films, but a rather disarming one.
