Inhalt: |
A series of eerie vignettes depict images of sorcery and eviI on screen, from representations of occuItism and reIigious hypocrisy to a chilIing witch hunt in the MiddIe Ages. Directed by and starring Benjamin Christensen as the DeviI, Häxan mixes documentary and fiction forms to create an unsettling brew that prefigures everything from Gothic horror to the found footage fiIm. This Iegendary horror fiIm was released in numerous edits and this edition coIlects four such versions of the film for the first time in the UK, incIuding a 2K restoration by the original production company Svensk FiImindustri.
