"The Coven" or also known as "The Long Night" is a movie with a predictable and sometimes silly script, but it has a couple of interesting moments within its cult and satanism theme. The great achievement of the film is its cinematography which is atmospheric and offers some gloomy and other very beautiful visuals, making the most of its filming locations. The performances of Scout Taylor-Compton, Nolan Gerard Funk and Jeff Fahey are decent without being outstanding. The soundtrack is an interesting point, sometimes it is good but in some scenes it does not fit with the image that is shown, resulting out of place. A soulless and boring movie at times, but not as bad as its reputation says.
Let's get right to it - this is a bad movie. The story is nearly nonexistent and what is there is the most generic, uninspired cult plot imaginable. The two leads would have made fine side characters in a slasher who get killed off, but they just aren't the type of character who can lead a movie like this. The male lead provides a solid portrayal of the obnoxious rich jockbro archetype, whose purpose is to simply be fodder...but that type of character has no knowledge or skills to lend to this type of story and feels awkward when left in for too long. Scout Taylor-Compton basically reprises her role as Angel Meyers from Rob Zombie's Halloween - a character who is the child of an unspeakable evil that spends most of her time screaming hysterically. However, in The Long Night she is just a forgettable shell of a character and is barely given anything to say or do, despite being the lead. Nothing of any significance happens so I'll leave it at that in terms of the "story".
That said, there were a lot of genuinely great visuals here. The cult looked excellent and there were a number of appealing shots of the cult doing cult things, such as igniting the giant unicursal hexagram symbol on the lawn. This movie seems to take significant influence from 70s cult/psychedelic horror, and the atmosphere was well done. Even though it lacked a lot of aspects necessary for a good movie, many scenes had a strong music video feel and would have worked extremely well in that context. As a movie it completely fails, but if distilled it could have made a great short folk horror film based exclusively around the strength of the visuals & aesthetic without needing to try to incorporate a story.

There are some really great things about this movie:
1. Great music - from start to finish
2. Scenes/cinematography is really good
3. Main male character is eye candy and handsome
all the rest is bad! Unconvincing story, very very bad ending, mediocre acting...

Wasn't the best movie I've ever seen and definitely not the worst, Kept my attention throughout. Don't understand the horrible ratings. To each their own.
This movie is not very good. The 'menacing' cult just stands around holding torches. The main couple is annoying. The story is really questionable, and I'm pretty forgiving. The final five minutes is kinda ok, but it's not worth it. This movie should've been titled 'The Long 90 Minutes'
