The Witching (2016) Reviews
The Lying
"The Witching" describes itself as a story about a forest haunted by an evil witch, who was put to death years before, and blah, blah, blah. So, a group of podcasters get together to bore you to death. As I have stated many times "caveat emptor" (let the buyer beware). In this case, it is the viewer who should be made aware. This movie's premise is just a big old lie. What you have to sit through is an anthology of unoriginal, unimaginative, poorly written, and badly acted tales. The "witch" story lasts all of about 30 seconds and is (naturally) the last one. Rated R for violence and recommended only if you want to be put to sleep real quickly.
Avoid at all costs
A cheaply made and terribly acted horror anthology bore fest the synopsis of the movie is shockingly misleading and is obviously a ploy to draw idiots (like me) into watching the film please do make the same mistake as me and save yourself 1 hour and 20 minutes of your life! As a matter of fact call your friends go camping on a Halloween night even if you spend the night reading books about accounting and maths it will still be more interesting and scary than this movie I once walked into a dentistry conference in which they discussed revolutionary advances in adolescent dentures and it was still more gripping and tense that this pile of utter garbage DO NOT WATCH!
You'll be itching for switching off The Witching.....
On All Hallows' Eve, and Halloween only hours away, the members of a popular podcast, The Witching Hour, gather to swap scary stories in the dark of the night. But they bargain for more than just ratings when they venture to the site where the Woodland Valley Witch was brutally murdered a few decades before, and have to contend with some horrific acting, and a deadly low budget....... There are many Podcasts where the presenters over exaggerate a topic of a fact within an inch of their life, trying to make their opinion come across as something more than just that. Now imagine a group of actors, with that motivation, but not doing a very good job of genuinely over exaggerating. Their excitement about their subjects, stories, and podcast fail, because they have no emotion in their amateurish eyes. And wouldn't you know, it's another anthology film. Now I'm in the camp that loves a good old anthology film. From Seeing Peter Cushing telling a young Donald Sutherland how he will meet his maker on a train, to the quite brilliant V/H/S series, there is always so etching comforting and predictable in anthology films. You will always get a wonderful story, a terrible one, be bookended by consequence, and have a very cinematic feel to it. The Witching has one of these, and let's just say a wonderful story isn't one of them. The stories feel like they were rushed, and gave about as much cinematic feel as a reconstruction on Crimewatch. The one story that sparks any interest is the one about the egg-timer. It would sit well in any horror anthology film, but despite the fantastic story arc, the acting just let's it down. As does the rest of the film. The other stories are terrible, forgettable trash, and the bookending part of the film is just us going back to these horribly smug podcasters, who try to usurp each other in the story league. By the time the inevitable happens (which you can see coming from minute one of the film) you breathe a sigh of relief rather than shock, because you know the film is about to end. I wouldn't bother if I were you, even though the egg-timer story is pretty sound, it's not worth wasting your life watching this.
A good movie that keeps the momentum going
i loved this movie. a series of short horror films packed a punch. it surely deserves a better rating. some actors performed really well. enough well planned scares. the director has done a good job. the ending could have been a little better. overall i would still rate this as a good horror movie. i found some of the stories very creative. a well thought out movie. there was nothing that can be termed as boring. interesting right from the start. cant give a higher rating than 9 because not everyone acted well. some scenes could have been scarier. Nevertheless an overall fun movie to see.
What am I thinking now?
This is an anthology film of five tales plus the witching tale in which our narrators live taking place on October 30th. The first feature was as short and pointless ghost tale. The second was a longer and better, a story about the Sleepwalker. I liked the remaining three features of necromancy at a radio station, a magic hourglass, and the night time security guard. The last three had a slight twist. The pentagram depicted on the cover art was not in the film, nor was the "nude" girl sitting in the center. The artwork was most likely commissioned to Korea and done by folks who didn't see the film. The stories never created engaging characters due to their length. I have a hard time imagining young adults going off into the woods to engage in smores, blogs, and story telling...boring enough to make me crave a deranged man in a bunny suit. The acting was a bit uneven. Any reason they gave the devil a British accent? Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity
