What might put you off
  • Rated PG: scary moments. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1964: an older pace and style.

In a 15th century village, a woman is accused of witchcraft and put to death. Her beautiful older daughter knows the real reason for the execution lies in the lord's sexual desire for her mother.
