A purported clinical documentary on witchcraft and satanism drawn almost entirely in unhinged expressionist horror images including foggy subterranean lairs, women giving birth to hairy horned beasts, moody nighttime broomstick rides, and general hysteria/torture that…
Do y'all know how funny it is to have someone walk behind you, and having to explain you're watching a silent Swedish documentary about witchcraft?
"Oh, you learned men!" For some reason I always thought this was a hysterical reactionary relic about the occult, but it's actually the exact opposite of that, a reason-oriented look at the phenomenon of witch hunts that even finds room for a little bit of wry humor…

Super cool and weird, should be more well known!!!
