Two Witches

This film begs the question "On what day did the lord allow the filmmakers to make this movie - and couldn't he have rested on that day?"

They have a lot of audacity promoting this as some new earth shattering film in the horror genre. Maybe if this was a 10th grade high school amateur film I'd give it some merit.

The actors are horrible, the dialogue is ridiculous, the things the actors say are so dumb where you're like "Really? That's your reaction to blah blah blah?". The charactors are so obnoxious & irritating. The story is so jumbled aloong with shaky, jerky camera movements along with poor special effects.

The filmmakers & actors should be ashamed of themselves and embarrassed. Movie was totally dumb & a let down considering all the hype. It's so bad at times you literally laugh out loud. Major fail.

By the way, any time a movie trailer starts off with showing about a dozen or more of those oak leaves (or whatever leaves they are) award symbols that say things like "Winner Berlin Film Fest" etc etc - you know the movie will be horrible. Same thing with all the phony quotes like "Terrifying!", "Scariest film since The Exorcist" etc. Speaking of The Exorcist; if this film was trying to be on the same level as it, Hellraiser, Halloween, The Thing etc., it failed miserably. If it was to be in the comedy/horror genre it would still be like a high school movie project.

Also, if you look up "Two Witches teaser" there is a minute and a half clip that isn't even in this movie. I watched the two "behind the scenes with the two directors/writers" and was blown away about how delusional they are thinking that they created some epic horror film and that there is more coming to the "Two Witches Universe". I will say they both seem like super nice guys but I think they are surrounded by people telling them how great the script is, the photography, the acting is - when it's not. It's like they are living on Fantasy Island.

The only reason it gets 2 stars instead of 1 is because I heard a new, cool song in it.

There's a lot to like with this film. There's some great cinematography, some genuinely scary moments and performances (I'm of course talking primarily about Rebekah Kennedy in Chapter II). Props to the practical effects and the CGI too because it works well, considering the budget likely being quite low.

It's not quite an anthology, but split up into halves, plus an epilogue. Which is not wholly unique but also not utilized often. This style mostly works, even if it feels slightly disjointed.

It isn't a perfect film however. It overstays its welcome by a little - I think because it is almost like two separate films, the length feels longer than it actually is. Then there is the frenetic editing reminiscent of early Saw films in a few scenes.

Overall I'd recommend this movie for genre fans. It's a very watchable indie horror effort. I would definitely watch a sequel, which the ending alludes to.

Okay, so the writing and acting are absolutely terrible, and the look is very low budget, as is the sound mixing/dialogue. There are some silly parts/facial expressions that made me laugh (reminded me of Drag Me To Hell.) But most importantly, I wasn't bored. It really kept me engaged. I find a lot of horror movies to be incredibly boring, so I'm happy when I watch a film like this. Has some good jump scares, and it was actually pretty scary! I would definitely watch it again.

I thought this movie was being released later this year (2022) and was pleasantly surprised to find it on Prime already.

Now, the concept idea of "Two Witches" definitely sounded interesting from the movie's synopsis, and a movie with witchcraft is usually always something fun to watch. And as such, I opted to sit down and watch the 2021 horror movie "Two Witches" from writers Kristina Klebe, Maxime Rancon and Pierre Tsigaridis without actually having heard of the movie prior to watching it.

The storyline was somewhat of a chaotic heap for me. I didn't enjoy being constantly bombarded with random footage that was supposed to be something like impressions or visions? It was just distracting and grew tiring really fast. So director Pierre Tsigaridis's 2021 movie "Two Witches" was a swing and a miss in terms of entertaining me.

I gave up on watching the movie, because the way that the movie was constructed and presented didn't appeal to my particular preference and taste in movies and entertainment. So the fact that the storyline had some appeal just fell to the ground. And I have zero interest in returning to finish watching "Two Witches".

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in this movie, and despite of me not enjoying the movie in general, I will say that the actors and actresses were doing fair enough jobs. It wasn't their fault that the writing was inadequate and that the director was all over the place.

I am sure that there is an audience out there for a movie such as "Two Witches", I just happened not to be in that particular target audience. I am not sure how true the movie was to actual witchcraft.

My rating of "Two Witches" lands on a generous three out of ten stars, given the production value of the movie.

TWO WITCHES is the kind of modern indie horror that inevitably leaves me cold. It's low budget, small scale and entirely predictable, featuring a bland young cast who find themselves assailed by a couple of old-fashioned witches. The story is so limited that the first half cuts off to introduce a whole new milieu in the second. As with a lot of these modern films, this one's overdirected to the hilt, with OTT transitions and camera effects to try to make it scary, but of course it doesn't work. Add in some gurning actors and a few nasty moments and you have something that doesn't even come close to horror.
