Synopsis
Witchcraft Through The Ages
Grave robbing, torture, possessed nuns, and a satanic Sabbath: Danish director Benjamin Christensen's legendary film uses a series of dramatic vignettes to explore the scientific hypothesis that the witches of the middle ages suffered the same hysteria as turn-of-the-century psychiatric patients. But the film itself is far from serious, instead it's a witches' brew of the scary, gross, and darkly humorous. The Criterion Collection is proud to present two versions of this genre-defying "documentary," for the first time ever on DVD. Includes both versions of the film: "Haxan" (1922) - a new, speed-corrected digital transfer of the Swedish Film Institute's tinted restoration; and "Witchcraft Through the Ages" (1968) - the 74-minute version of "Haxan," narrated by William S. Burroughs, with a soundtrack featuring Jean-Luc Ponty.
