31 day movie challenge for the summer months - Day 23

 

Witchfinder General. Is that a cult film? Fuck it I'm going with it. It's one of the most effective horror films you'll ever see too. Vincent Price is terrifying in the lead with his usual camp horror act nowhere to be seen. It's scary despite being set mostly in daylight, it has an opening scene that will stay in your head for years after you see it and with it's indictment of governmental hypocrisy and societal & systemic misogyny it's message packs a vicious punch too.
