pada 12; Not too much into the extreme metal myself, but Witchfynder 1982 has done a GREAT video for the BURNING SAVIOURS song "Night of the Witch" using footage from this film!
After the Monks have finished flogging each other, they should go and kiss the Devil's arse! Nothing better than seeing some sexually frustrated young men performing the OSCULUM OBSCENUM!
Great trailer with nice baroque music...shame it isn't scored by MERCYFUL FATE, THE DEVIL'S BLOOD or GHOST-now that would REALLY be somthing to behold! Boiling unbaptised babies, kissing the Devil's arse, Demons wanking, monks flogging each other (mmm...) Nuns having no fun and poking their toungs out, trampling on the cross, the Devil pouring a chalice of his unholy semen over a naked woman...What's NOT to like!?!
I didn't really liked it. I don't mean to be a troll, I just though it was kinda boring. The information on witchcraft was very interesting. However it was presented very slowly.
Great work into putting the video toghether, it makes a great trailer.
Wow, from what I can tell from this video, they cut so much from the 60's version... which I watched. Maybe I don't remember it well enough, but it looks like a ton of footage was cut
@YellowTurtle13 the 60's version (called Witchcraft Through The Ages) is about half the length of Haxan which is its source. And of course has the narration by William Burroughs.
@ValentineDelatour This is a very classical from the silent era in Denmark/Sweden. This was also the first film to introduce special effects, too. One of my all-time favorites as #24 on my top 25 favorite films list.
@tapesan09 Movies have used special effects almost as soon as the art form was born. Georges Méliès made a film career out of beautifully crafted fantasy films, the most famous of which was his "Trip to the Moon" in 1902; predating Häxan by a good 20 years. That said, Häxan is a beautiful example of classic silent film special effect use. Enjoy!
the music is Danse Macabre, by Franz Liszt

I can't believe this is from the early 20's... It looks too extreme to be from the 60's let alone the 20's :O
