View all Häxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages reviews

Benjamin Christensen’s legendary silent film uses a series of dramatic vignettes to explore the scientific hypothesis that the witches of the Middle Ages suffered the same hysteria as turn-of-the-century psychiatric patients. Häxan is a witches’ brew of the scary, gross, and darkly humorous.

1 Day, 1 Movie (30 movies items)

"Day 17 - A mute movie I heard a lot about Häxan, and even if it was quite interesting, I didn't find this as fascinating as I expected. But, from an historical point of view, it was an interesting summary of the evolution of the "witch" perception. Plus, the effects are particularly well done for a 1922 movie."
