Ohhhh, yes indeed!  It's the silent era spooky, funny and weird quasi witchcraft doc & this presentation is accompanied with a live original score by Austin Composer & multi-instrumentalist DAVID DIDONATO.

Grave robbing, torture, possessed nuns, and a satanic Sabbath: Benjamin Christensen’s legendary Häxan uses a series of dramatic vignettes to explore the scientific hypothesis that the witches of the Middle Ages suffered the same hysteria as turn-of-the-twentieth-century psychiatric patients. But the film itself is far from serious—instead, it’s a witches’ brew of the scary, gross, and darkly humorous.

"…one of the great milestones in cinema history…Häxan’s brand of satanic panic defines how the patriarchy saw women, but also exposes how spurious fallacies were used to control females and keep them in their wrongful place…" -Eddie Harrison, film-authority.com

"A weird and rather wonderful brew of fiction, documentary and animation based on 15th and 16th century witchcraft trials, Christensen's film has a remarkable visual flair that takes in Bosch, Breughel and Goya." -David Thompson, Time Out

"Those looking for something different to watch won't do much better than this delirious Swedish documentary from the silent era." - Matt Brunson. Film Frenzy
