Crazy, horny, and beautiful! And, it's in black and white🗣️

I won't lie, I found it slow and a challenging journey, but the further I watched it, the more amazed I became.

The way it addresses sexual repression is strange but undoubtedly splendid. The black and white cinematography is gorgeous, full of genuinely beautiful shots.

What we absolutely must applaud and highlight is Daliah Lavi and her completely manic and chaotic performance; for 1 hour and 40 minutes, she gives her all with a great performance.

visually stunning, tragic and unnerving. handled it's subject matter and depictions of abuse with a tact sometimes not even present in more modern movies. the fact this was made in 1963 is just crazy, super ahead of its time wow

Stunning and gut wrenching in equal measure. What a performance by Daliah Lavi! An instant new favourite.

Holy hell exhilarating. A witch tale propelled by suffering, masochism, and sadism. A world built upon the holiest of grounds where all our worst fears of religion are true. The fanatical religious world of this story amplifies everything. There is a discipline to the misery here which reminds me of Bergman. It creates a textured darkness, more palpable. I was a bit startled by several shots which were breathtaking. An impressive cinematography seals the deal on this one.

Yeah, put some raisins on the bed. That’ll stop the devil. Idiots. Oh, my “blood is dying” so we gotta “burn the air.” Makes sense.

A stark reminder of how deeply evil a community ruled by superstition is. Not great how we’re not too far off from this decades later!
