Description
Elaine, a beautiful young witch, is determined to find a man to love her. In her gothic Victorian apartment, she makes spells and potions, and then picks up men and seduces them. However, her spells work too well, and she ends up with a string of hapless victims. When she finally meets the man of her dreams, her desperation to be loved will drive her to the brink of insanity and murder. With a visual style that pays tribute to Technicolor thrillers of the 1970s, THE LOVE WITCH explores female fantasy and the repercussions of pathological narcissism.
Commentary
What can I say about this movie? It is visually stunning! The cinematography and the sets are the absolute best things about this movie. The witch's apartment alone is iconic! It is the dream apartment in which any witch would love to live; on par with the Charmed One's manor. The story started off with an interesting premise, and the plot was well executed throughout the film. However, towards the end I felt that the writer(s) didn't know how they wanted to end the story. Therefore, we were left with a rather lackluster ending.
