CGiii Comment

You can take anachronism too far...slapping fake moustaches and beards on women was a mistake too far.

Shame, the script was there [albeit already written] and there is some good imagery...when there are no facial wigs in sight! 


No trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

A group of women are facing charges for witchery, and if sentenced, face execution. In their hunt for scapegoats the prosecuting authorities go beyond questioning – applying tests and torture methods to get the confessions needed to progress to trials. The accused know they won’t escape this alive, but can they somehow preserve their reputation?
