    Default Witch movie recommendations

    Hey guys, I posted here not in the TV section because I like what Mignola/Hellboy did and continues to do with witches in his tales. Are there movies you can recommend? So far I've seen 3 I like...

    The Craft (1996)
    Warlock (1989)
    Witchfinder General (1969)

    It doesn't have to be similar just what you guys would consider a great witch related movie.

    The Witch (2016) is actually the closest I've seen to The Hellboy witch sensibility.

    Halloween is almost here . . . thought I might as well bump this thread up.

    Well, I am just beginning to watch House of the Witch, a 2017 made for TV movie. Not sure how good it is, but I can repost after it is over to let you know. A boy just got sucked into the house kicking and screaming. So, a good start!

    Penny Dreadful has some interesting witch storylines throughout the show. Matter of fact, I think if you're into Mignola's work, then the show Penny Dreadful should be enjoyable.

    I believe Mignola said he's a fan of Penny Dreadful.

    He's also been posting his favorite horror/halloween movies over on twitter recently. He posted The Witch (2016) which is absolutely great!

    Thanks, Major.
    Probably have to watch The Witch and Suspiria soon. Thanks for all your input. Can't believe I forgot Drag me to hell (Sam Raimi)

    By the way, how scary was . . .



    Caper Meets Wendy (1998)

    with young Hilary Duff as Wendy?

    (Never saw it . . . never plan to.)

    The original Wicker Man has some occult and almost witch-like moments, although possibly not what people are looking for... But what an interesting movie!

    A couple of things I didn't see mentioned...

    Witchcraft plays into the film Suspiria.

    Witchcraft also plays into the film The Lords Of Salem. It is a surprisingly solid low key horror film.
