Viewing Notes
Next up in my wildly popular Video Nasties series is The Witch Who Came from the Sea. Technically, it’s not one of the core video nasties that were prosecuted as brain poison (or whatever), but it was one of the over 70 films brought before a committee committed (hmm, is that why they call them that?) to censoring supposedly obscene films so they wouldn’t turn Britain’s youths into rapists, murderers, and generally bad people. I knew nothing about the film (other than its inclusion in that infamous censorship campaign) before it arrived in the mail. I thought it might be about some witch. Maybe a sea-based witch. Maybe you think so too. (the presumably unlicensed re-touched and re-purposed Frank Frazetta artwork would certainly suggest something along those lines)
