4/5
...a home invasion plot that centers on a story about a witch. That’s the very brief description, but the actual story surprises as it goes much deeper than that. It’s also a lot darker than I ever expected, which makes it hit hard. In all the right ways! Go to Full Review

Amanda H @AmandaHugNKiss26 1d This movie was such a wonderful surprise. Not only did the storyline feel original but the actors were captivating. See more M D. @Cinephile45 Jan 27 A gripping, atmospheric thriller that builds tension the right way. The Calling Witch delivers strong performances, a haunting mood, and a slow-burn story that keeps you locked in until the end. Smart, unsettling, and beautifully crafted—an excellent indie film worth watching. See more Isa B @Louaninou Jan 24 Super thriller I love it!!!! See more Heidi G @Heidi224 Jan 22 Loved this super suspenseful thriller movie from beginning to end. Excellent story telling and directing with amazing actors! This movie is one you’ll be thinking about long after the movie is over!! Highly recommend!! See more Mar•Garet W @RLM-Fan-Club-76 Jan 22 ★ | ☆ From the sounds of it, the Critics really liked this one so it'll either be really good -or- really Terrible. [SPOILERS]: This Film is really good. Either way, the Producers should have put a nominal amount of more DOLLAR$ into a better Movie Poster: because the one they've currently got just looks like the other 10,000+ D-Grade Horror Movie's & their Photoshop/AI-made Posters that're currently in the Film marketplace. You really need a Poster/Thumbnail that stands apart & lets the viewer know prior to choosing (or -Not- choosing) to view the Film: that it is indeed a step or 3 apart from all the other ubiquitous number of D -to- F-grade Horror flicks out there now, made for $10,000 or less........... ✮ P.S. Good move RT: Limiting the # of Characters in a review to 1k/1000: "Brevity Is The Soul Of Wit." See more Billy H. @billydhale Jan 22 Beautiful movie, with a great cast, and an even greater storyline. Easily worth the money to rent, and absolutely worth the time to watch.
