Featured review
Who forgot to call Frankie & Annette?
A witch movie set in the groovy late-Sixties, with a bunch of awe-shucks college kids, putting aside their beach blankets for a night to muck around with witchcraft.
Those of short attention spans will miss out on some of the interesting material in this B-movie, for watching MARK OF THE WITCH is like turning on a baseball game and finding the home team down 8-to-0 in the first inning. Most folks would change the channel rather than endure a drubbing, but the horrendous opening scene and the worst "song" ever played during credits, will give way to a mildly entertaining witch themed diversion.
The lovely coed Jill (Anitra Walsh), sweet as apple pie and the perfect portrait of the girl-next-door, finds a book on witchcraft at a university book sale. She buys the book, takes it to a party with all her hepcat friends, and playfully calls forth the spirit of a witch. All is done in fun and jest, but a witch, dead some 300 years, is indeed summoned and takes residence in Jill's nubile body. The witch has mayhem in store for this buttoned-up college.
STORY $$: Nothing terribly inventive is unveiled in this flick, which hinders the overall viewing experience. What the witch has in store is anyone's guess, for she saunters out to a grove at night, calls forth her coven, but no other witches or warlocks rear their heads. She makes a few sacrifices, explodes a caged bird and tries to seduce a professor... standard witch stuff, you know.
ACTING $$: This is pretty much all Anitra Walsh. Surprisingly, this is Miss Walsh's only film credit of any substance. She shows a rather remarkable skill for soliloquies, camera up close on her profile, as she calls out to her coven in the netherworld. She proves more than capable of carrying a picture, with the aptitude for acting and a screen presence that is casual, like one doing exactly what they were put on this earth to do.
SEX/NUDITY $$: While calling out to her heinous, devil-worshiping cronies at midnight, Jill gets aroused and lets her breasts have some night air. A body double for Anitra Walsh was almost certainly used.
