Rooted deeply in the eerie traditions of period horror, 'WITCH' revisits the haunting era of the 16th century in England—a time when witch trials spread fear and superstition across the land. The film artfully intertwines the grim realities of these trials with the spellbinding folklore of the period, drawing viewers into a world where merely being accused of witchcraft could mean a death sentence.
Set against the backdrop of a small town in England, circa 1575, the story unfolds around Twyla (portrayed by Sarah Alexandra Marks), a woman wrongfully accused of engaging in witchcraft. Facing the dire prospect of execution, her story is one of love, peril, and the unyielding quest for justice. Her husband, William (played by Ryan Spong), embarks on a harrowing journey to prove her innocence, seeking the true witch responsible for the accusations.
As William traverses a landscape marked by fear and malevolence, he encounters stories of dark magic that span the ages, leading him to question the very nature of the evil he pursues. Could the witch he seeks be something beyond mortal comprehension? The film also features Russell Shaw, adding depth to the talented cast with his portrayal of Thomas.
