Grave robbing, torture, possessed nuns, and a satanic Sabbath: Benjamin Christensen's legendary film uses a series of dramatic vignettes to explore the scientific hypothesis that the witches of the Middle Ages suffered the same hysteria as turn-of-the-century psychiatric patients. But the film itself is far from serious-- instead it's a witches' brew of the scary, gross, and darkly humorous.
Blurring the line between historical documentary and feverish nightmare, this silent epic examines how mass hysteria once masqueraded as supernatural evil. Surreal visual sequences transform medieval superstitions into a haunting, visceral spectacle of shadow and ritual.
