    18;40 Häxan, "the witch", is a swedish movie, not danish. My sisters former husbands grandfather made it. (or maybe grandgrandfather)

      This was scripted as a possession ep but that was years and years ago and the planned new trilogy fell through so I'm gonna do them as regular eps.

    This looks like a fake 30ies movie made in 1980 or later... Especially due to the nudity. I find it odd to see that in 1935. But yeah it was real. Apparently, considered as one of the worst movies ever made, and I can see why.
