Not graphic, but one of the most horrifying scenes I have ever seen in a movie. SPOILERS


A cute little baby is playing peek-a-boo with his older sister. She opens her eyes and the baby is gone. We see the forest and hear the baby cooing. We next see him lying naked in shadowy firelight on a blanket while an also naked old woman approaches and places a knife against his stomach. Then, all in barely visible shadows, we see her rubbing blood (presumably the baby's) all over her naked body and her broomstick. Then we see her lying down with the broomstick pressed lengthwise between her legs, seeming to masturbate with it. Finally, the ritual complete, we see the silhouette of her back as she flies off toward the full moon.

Yes, this is a horror movie, but who needs to see that kind of stuff.

That is where I stopped watching. Not for me. Horror is one thing but that is depravity and evil. Not the kind of thing I want some dumbass movie to put out there and infect my thoughts with. It’s as if the writers were straining to one-up other horror films. Pass.

Why not change your name to Wuss ?

reply

LOL! Yep. So "Wuss" (aka Whom) watched less than 5 minutes of a movie and is making pronouncements on what the writer is trying for? Go to your safe space "Wuss".

So I have to watch this because why? You double dare me to? Go watch turds in a toilet for all I care.

Nice one.

But that old naked witch becomes a young pretty (and clothed) lady afterward.
