7 Witches - My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: Kate attends her sister's wedding and can't help but feel there is something odd about the family her sister is marrying into. 


7 witches is an ugly tale of revenge, hatred and family conflicts. It's the kind of movie that leaves you horrified and sick to the stomach.

It has drama that is relatable but the characters are not exactly relatable.

Yet, this movie is actually a decent watch and what works in its favour is the pace.

Had the plot been drawn out more than it was intended to, it would have been a bore. There is always something happening in every scene and the tension builds until it reaches a climax that will leave you appalled.


7 WITCHES Movie Plot

For centuries, the witches have been hunted like dogs, punished for their witchcraft and killed like animals. Now, with only seven witches remaining, they aim to get back what they rightfully deserve.

Kate is attending her sister's wedding with her boyfriend whom she has either broken up with or is on the verge of doing so. Her family is happy to see her except for her annoying sister who keeps taunting her and reminds Kate to not spoil her special day.

Reluctantly, Kate travels with her family to a remote area to take part in a marriage ceremony that seems a bit off to her.

Turns out, Kate was right in being so cautious and not eating the food she is served. The family her sister is getting married into is strange, stoic and always dressed in black.

There are scenes where cooking is showed and the background sound is all ominous and creepy as if a ritual is being performed.

Kate survives on granola bars and wine, keeping a distance from the family despite her sister's taunts of not blending in. Kate's aunt too is wary but sees the family as more eccentric than anything else.


7 WITCHES Ending Explained with Spoilers! 

The second part of the movie is when things start to get weird. Cody is seduced but before he can impregnate Kate's sister and her fiancée, he runs off.

One of the male witches kills whoever threatens him with a knife. Cody becomes one of the victims.

When her aunt takes suddenly ill, Kate stays back with her while her family is mercilessly drowned during the wedding ceremony.

Of course, Kate's sister didn't see this, she freaks out and is killed much later on.

Kate, armed with a gun, manages to kill off the family as they hunt her down.

The film ends as she takes the final shot at the matriarch. Apparently, she had enough bullets to carry on this terrible task.

This movie may not have been scary, but it is thrilling, has creepy elements to it- especially when we are shown the scene of the witches feasting on the flesh of the family they had just killed.

It's a movie that will renew your faith in not wanting to attend, traditional weddings and also be wary of people dressed in black robes.

The Limehouse Golem- My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: When Elizabeth's husband is found dead, all fingers point to her. But is it really her or the work of a serial killer? If like me, you’ve read hundreds of mysteries and are enthused about Sherlock Holmes tales, THE LIMEHOUSE GOLEM is actually pretty predictable. Set in the Victorian Era, it promises to instil fear in you. Before Jack the Ripper, there was Golem- such is the tagline and you do want it to be the kind of movie that keeps you guessing until the very end as to the true identity of the killer.   Unlike the Jack the Ripper legend, Golem is easily recognizable in the very first instance the character is introduced.

Delirium (2018)— My take on the movie with spoilers!

Look Away— my take on the movie with spoilers!

Plot Summary: A bullied girl switches places with her reflection. She soon regrets her decision as people start dying.  What matters most? Looks or confidence? When we see someone for the first time, we do notice their looks, the way they dress. Personality and their ability to initiate and hold a conversation comes second, doesn't it? Imagine meeting someone who is good looking but is dull to the core. Now imagine someone with average looks but is someone you can have fun with or have an intellectual conversation. Which seems more attractive? Look Away takes a very bold stand where appearances are concerned. But also about self-confidence. In the end, the only argument it makes is that one cannot possess both attributes. LOOK AWAY Movie Plot  We are introduced to a timid girl, Maria whose father is a plastic surgeon. Her mother is shown to have no say of her own. She is left to watch her husband ridicule his daughter about not being careful with her looks. Maria has a friend Lily
