A celebration of Nazism that has been mislabelled a classic...

Rating: 1/10 (16 December 2000)

Frankly, if I wanted to see a film in which outright lies were told about Wiccans, I would turn on my television and watch a Pat Robertson speech. Or dig up one of the propaganda movies comissioned by the German government during the mid-1930s. When I went and saw this tripe at the flicks (at the behest of a friend who publishes a magazine), I was simply appalled at the sort of Nazi-esque garbage that Republican America considers acceptable. Indeed, during one of the asinine speeches given by Heather, another member of the audience jumped up and screamed "sieg heil" in disgust. This comment got more applause and positive reaction than the film ever did. Indeed, by the time this appalling film was over, one patron near me was heard to remark "you've got to be [expletive deleted] joking!". This was the most positive comment I have heard about the film from a flesh-and-blood human to date. Indeed, when Heather is bawling her little eyes out for the camera in one of the film's last shots, another patron was heard to yell "don't tell us your problems, Nazi bitch". I think that just sums this entire film up.
Indeed, this film has inspired me. It has inspired me to commit to making a response of my own. One day I will make a film about a young woman in Europe during the Middle Ages who is kidnapped by Christian thugs and taken off to destinations unknown where she is repeatedly raped and tortured by "men of the cloth" before being burned alive, solely because she attracts the unwanted attention of a Nazi pig no different than those who made this film. Unlike this film, however, what I will be showing in my film project actually happened in Medieval Europe, Colonial America, and numerous other Christian blights on history - many times over. Indeed, the only reason why the makers of this film haven't been sued for slander is because the Christian menace still controls the political system of America.
It's a sad state of affairs when slanderous propaganda like this gets financial backing and then hailed as a classic by pond scum who don't know any better.
