“Whether you’re a horror fan, a Romero fan, or are just looking for interesting and challenging ‘lost’ cinema, don’t pass up this forgotten gem.”
Season Of The Witch (Hungry Wives) 1972
Director: George A. Romero
Writer: George A. Romero
Starring: Jan White, Ray Laine, Ann Muffly
United States | R | 104
George A. Romero wasn’t afraid to take artistic risks and explore different genres of filmmaking early in his career. After dabbling in bleak horror with Night of the Living Dead and comedy in There’s Always Vanilla, Romero next decided to tackle dark drama.

As we all know, the 1960s and '70s were a time of massive political and social change. One of the filmmakers to most often comment and reflect upon this upheaval is a man not usually thought of as a socio-political filmmaker: George A. Romero. That’s right, the zombie guy.
While Romero's living dead have been seen as metaphors for everything from the birth of a new social order to society feeding upon itself, in 1971 he made a film that employed almost no symbolism at all in its exploration of contemporary cultural evolution. Season of the Witch is a straight-forward drama about an upper-middle-class housewife facing middle age and trying to find her place in a world that's suddenly changing in every possible way.
