Dead Hot: Season of the Witch

This "movie" documents the journey Vanessa Hudgens and GG Magree undertake to discover true witchcraft and enter the spirit world.

Yeah, right.

Whilst wearing negligees and appearing always slightly intoxicated, they giggle and prance around Salem.

It's a ridiculous farce. Then, Vanessa gets to the "serious" part where she reads from a journal about her growth and discoveries with braid extensions and lots of candles.

Again, yeah right. It's laughable and cringy.

You'll learn nothing.

It's these two blathering idiots discussing the women tried as witches ...and female empowerment. It's shockingly distespectful to those women who suffered and died.

There is no way anyone could possibly sit through it all the way through. I did it for you. Save yourselves...choose ANYTHING else.

Why does a movie like this exist? It has no director and no writer, i.e. There literally is no script, meaning they just randomly chose what to film and then edited it together. Any other persons appearing are not even credited, they seem to be either locals or personal acquaintances of the two actresses, who literally play themselves for crying out loud.

Apart from absolutely nothing significant happening, there's neither a dramatic arch or character development. And of course there isn't - there is no script! The base message of "be yourself" is so forced in through overlay monologues that it loses all meaning. Any franchise tie-in with the sole purpose of keeping up the license has more substance and, most of all, reason to be made in the first place. It just feels like Hudgens and Magree were bored, so they made a movie, expenses paid by the producers.

This feels like some random, very subpar Youtube documentary about two teens with the paranormal as a hobby, it's full of either bland or forcefully polemic babble and all in all has nothing redeeming whatsoever.

It's more about looking cute in goth attire than showing respect to spirits of any kind. High school slumber party where they hold fake seances and light as a feather stiff as a board comes to mind. The young women are lovely and engaging, but perhaps they watched The Craft one too many times. The history of the place and tours of the old buildings were informative and interesting, and the viewer is introduced to people genuinely involved in the study of spiritual matters like communication with the dead and witchcraft. And, as has become the norm in paranormal shows, they forget that those who died as a result of the Salem trials were not practicing witches.

I didn't expect a scholarly exploration of The Salem Witch Trials, but I expected what little bit that was referenced to be accurate. It was not even close. They didn't even mention that there were men who were also victims in Salem.

I didn't expect a deep dive into the various paths of witchcraft, but I thought there might be some information that some might find useful.

This giggly, inebriated, over-accessorized attempt by two vapid fluffy-bunnies to find ... something ... was painful to watch, disrespectful to the victims of the Salem Witch Trials, had more in common with GHOSTBUSTERS than anything to do with real witchcraft, and I found myself hoping some evil spirits would scare some sense into these two.

This is sooooooo dumb and my question is why? Vanessa huges shame on you - why? I just saw this and thought to myself - is she become irrelevant to firce her to do this? Oh my goodness WHAT A DUMB WASTE OF TIME! I like VH No more Shame on you to show your true colors and just become dumb.
