Nonureva Really Surprised!
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
HumanoidOfFlesh "Night of the Witches" is a psychedelic 70's horror comedy about a lewd preacher who meets up with a coven of sexy witches.The main witch Cassandra often speaks with Jupiter in her colorful mansion.Very strange and somewhat surreal horror comedy with several truly bizarre characters.The character of preacher totally cracked me up.I enjoyed the main country song too.It goes like that ""He's a man of many pleasures,He's a man who's got the time,He's the man who told the preacher where to go-oh-oh...He won't talk behind your back,He's no ordinary jack,He's a man of many pleasures,don't ya know".The lack of nudity is a bit of disappointing,but if you are a fan of 70's weirdness grab the copy of Keith Larsen's "Night of the Witches" and treasure it!7 witches out of 10.Abre la puerta!
octavalvehandle I don't know what they were thinking when they made this horror cheapie but it turned out to be unique and fun. I haven't seen this movie in many, many years but I remember it fondly for its goofiness. It was shown on late night TV in the late 70's or early 80's. For some reason, I still recall the lyrics to the main character's countryish theme song: "He's a man of many pleasures, He's a man who's got the time, He's the man who told the preacher where to go - oh - oh ... He won't talk behind your back, He's no ordinary jack, He's a man of many pleasures, don't ya know" -- Has this film ever been released on DVD or VHS? If anyone can point me in the direction of a copy, please e-mail me!-B O N G O"
John Turley Seeing this movie for the first time, one just might think they are viewing another low-budget piece of silliness. The sets and costumes are so dated, and the location screams Santa Barbara, California.But there is more than meets the eye!1) The villain is a phony preacher in a Model T causing mischief wherever he goes. Possibly a nod to "Night of the Hunter"?2) The location is not Southern California, but rather some nondescript coastal area of Mexico. We never really find out.3) In spite of the year, there are no typical hippies or drugs. Instead, we find witches and other bizarre things awaiting.Though the movie does not take itself too seriously, the storyline holds its own very well. There is no excess violence or vulgarity. A real gem!
phage739 Night of the Witches is a psychedelic seventies horror movie with some pretty interesting moments! A coven of witches lead by a woman named Cassandra, living in a cliffside mansion in California, sacrifice unsuspecting wanders based on what the zodiac decrees! Plenty of Bond Girl outfits and scantily clad witches! Despite a few "Keystone Cop" chase scenes, this low budget film delivers incredible atmosphere and some gritty guitar songs! Fans of the psychedelic drive in movie era will scream in delight! Think along the lines of "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things!"
