One Occult/Hippie/Witchcraft movie leads to another and another and another. This time though we might have some fruit.
A lone biker/wanderer David (again) stops to help an older man with a flat tire. For his effort, the older man punctures David's motorcycle tire with a nail. David gets his bike fixed and tries to chase down the old man. The old man panics and crashes his car into a tree and dies. David, wanting no part of this speeds away.
He comes up to a shack and since it has been dark this whole time he decides to spend the night. When he wakes up a young woman, Liv, who tells him he needs to leave now before her family sees him. David is expecting parents but instead is found by her two sisters Samantha and Bibiana. They invite him to stay for breakfast and ends up staying for much longer. The three women live in the BEST witch house I have seen in a while and really is making me rethink what needs to go into a witches' house. The wall-size pictures of each of the three women are going to go into something to be sure.
Everything is very psychedelic. The first hour of so is slow, but the last 20 minutes really kicks in and gets really going. David begins to see what sort of trouble he is in. Not before he has sex with Liv at any rate; which actually might have been the final thing that does him in really.
The women kill him and bury him in the yard. All the guests from the party are there, already in black. The rich older man from the first scene is also there. Turns out he is the Devil! Pretty cool ending really. The witches mention that to corupt him was very difficult and that the Devil will no longer be needed. All the guests at party are "conjurers" and are designed to keep sin alive and well.
Pretty cool.
This one starts off with some trippy special effects and a witch ritual that at least reads right. It's the early 70s so we are also are going to get some scantily clad dancing girls and a vaguely Satanic looking sacrifice. I been wanting to see this one since the witch (Witch Queen maybe) Mara.
At one point Mara channels her "Indian guide" with some of the most painful dialogue I have heard outside a racist cartoon. It is quite painful really. So our witch Mara kills a UN Ambassador and the ones that paid her try to kill her, but I guess she can't be killed.
This movie though is so 70s it treats magic as a foregone conclusion; it exists but not everyone has mastered it yet.
There is a lot of neat sympathetic magic here, but not really a lot of blood nor orgies though really.
The movie ends with a group of "good guys" killing all the women.

- Witches need to have really cool, or at least really unique, homes.
- I need to expand some psychic powers for witches.
- I should develop some rules for reincarnation for witch characters.
- More wizard vs. witch battles.
