- A look at the very influential Michael Reeves film Witchfinder General. This film looks at the British civil war witchhunts led by Mathew Hopkins and their damage done during the period. This is a brutal revenge-tragedy where no-one escapes with their sanity.
I saw it in a theatre without knowing much about it figuring it was a low budget genre piece. It started off that way but by the end I was genuinely moved and the audience gave it an enthusiastic round of applause!
Thanks for watching. There's a lot more to it than meets the eye. Its a film that deserves its cult audience but has more within it if looked at closely.
Much like The Wicker Man, I've never been a huge fan of Witchfinder General and feel guilty about it. Both are still excellent and well worth having and watching but I don't think they are as amazing as other people do. Yes, I am weird.
I have a similar view of the wicker man to you but this one is great. I still think its under-rated, despite some flaws due to budget.
