Review: The Virgin Witch

British exploitation has Christine (Ann Michelle) wanting to be a model and she thinks she gets her big break when Sybil Waite (Patricia Haines) invites her out to the country for a weekend photo shoot. Christine's sister Betty (Vicki Michelle) ends up going along and soon it turns out that this country home is actually a coven for witches and they need new members.

VIRGIN WITCH is a pretty bad movie from start to finish but it's worth noting that not a single minute goes by without some sort of nudity going on. The viewer must really applaud all the young actresses who were willing to take their clothes off because without the nudity we'd be left with a major dud.

There are countless problems with this picture but the biggest is the fact that not much ever happens. We just sit around watching the ladies get naked for various photo shoots and then we get scenes where the characters do nothing but talk. They talk, talk some more and continue to talk about things that really don't matter to anything in the story. Even worse is that the pacing is so slow that the 88-minute running time feels doubt that.

There are some campy moments scattered across the film including the various witchcraft scenes, which are just downright funny at times. These scenes allow other actresses to take off their clothes and watching them cross arms and do some sort of strange dance is almost worth sitting through the entire thing for.

Both Ann and Vicki Michelle are actually good in their roles as is Haines. VIRGIN WITCH was originally made in 1970 but the BBFC wouldn't allow it to be released until after some cuts. Even with the cuts restored, it's easy to see why they wanted to protect the people from this junk.
