About this movie

Set against the backdrop of the Great Plague and subsequent witch-hunts against women, Grace Haverstock (Charlotte Kirk) must grapple with the tragic untimely death of her husband Joseph (Joe Anderson) in a society completely consumed by fear and death. Because she rejects her landlord Squire Pendleton's (Steven Waddington) advances, she is falsely accused of being a witch and thrown in jail for a crime she did not commit. Grace must endure physical persecution at the hands of England's most ruthless witch-hunter Judge Moorcroft (Sean Pertwee) and face her own inner demons as the Devil himself starts to work his way into her mind.

Ratings and reviews

Not sure how an entire cast can overact so badly, but that and cringeworthy writing make this a truly terrible movie.

NOT A HORROR MOVIE
