Hello and thank you once again for
joining us down at the crossroads for some music, magick, and
Paganism. Where witches gather for the sabbath, offerings are made,
pacts are signed for musical fame and we usually cross paths with
today’s most influential Pagans, occultists, and deep thinkers, but
tonight that’s not happening because it’s film club time. I am your
bewitching, bald headed, host Chris Orapello and tonight Tara and I
sit down with our good friend Nissa to turn our eyes and minds to
Robert Eggers’ 2015 film The VVitch.
That’s right, make some popcorn, secure your copy, sit down, get
comfortable, lower the lights, and join us as we watch and discuss
tonight’s movie. (Just an FYI, there were several audio issues with
the recording and I tried to correct them as best as I could.)
Please be aware that this episode does contain spoilers and we will
be having a pre-movie discussion and then a post-movie discussion,
however we won’t be watching the film during the recording of the
episode, but we will be hearing music by Wardruna, Horse Cult, and
Damh the Bard. If you’re a fan of the show Daria from back in the
day on MTV then you’re in for a special treat, because Nissa is a Morgendork, but before we
elaborate on just what that is and get into the talking about The
VVitch, here’s Gibu by Wardruna.
In 1630 New England, panic and despair envelops a farmer, his wife and their children when youngest son Samuel suddenly vanishes. The family blames Thomasin, the oldest daughter who was watching the boy at the time of his disappearance. With suspicion and paranoia mounting, twin siblings Mercy and Jonas suspect Thomasin of witchcraft, testing the clan’s faith, loyalty and love to one another.
Featured Songs:
- “Gibu” by Wardruna
- “Day Dreams and Night Mares” by Horse Cult
- “Sabbat” by Damh the Bard
