As a practicing Wiccan I had high hopes for this remake until I saw it. It misses the practice of the craft on every point. It is an Insult to Feminism and an Insult to Paganism.
SPOILER!: This newly written last part in a bar where Willow & Honey pick up their next victims, Oh Please! You might as well have been filming a Girls Gone Wild and Psychotic DVD!
The original British Lion movie was more accurate. This remake is too extreme. The original had the inhabitants of the island in unity, women and men together. The insult to feminism is that the island is totally run by women with the men walking around as "Tommys"... Deaf, Dumb, & Blind, not "Pinball Prodigies". That should also be claimed as an insult to Dianic Wicca as Well! Feminism is NOT about hating men and Wicca is "And it Harm None, do what ye will". We still have bonfires but we don't sacrifice Animals and Humans in them anymore. In the original they followed the ritual correctly, even if it was disturbing. In the remake, it's nothing but total Bloodlust!
I hope the filmmakers are aware of the law of Three-Fold. They sent out this horrible remake that distorts Paganism, they get back 3X losses. The next time you do a remake of a movie with a Pagan theme, stick with the facts that we don't hunt and sacrifice animals & humans and shun out the opposite sex in our practice. Do your research and don't assume things.
