[box] “Most books on witchcraft will tell you that witches work naked. This is because most books on witchcraft were written by men.” ― Neil Gaiman[/box]

Teenagers must have been vastly disappointed by this one, even in 1961.

This is the old story of a witch who returns from the grave to get vengeance on the descendents of those that burnt her at the stake.  The only difference is that she wears a see-through negligee most of the time.

If you watch the clip you will see the high point of the movie – and with better music.  Larry Buchanan went on to specialize in soft-core porn.  This isn’t quite that but has the same basic vibe.  Don’t waste your time.

It’s on to more mainstream viewing today!

Witch’s dance synched to In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida – pretty amazing synchronization!
