The Witch. Revenge
An ancient witch from the Ukrainian town of Konotop has renounced her powers after falling in love with a mortal guy, but when the war starts and russian soldiers occupy the city and brutally murder her beloved, she decides to exact revenge on them, so she restores her powers and subjects her fiance’s killers to some horrifying and bloody acts of retribution.
As she begins hunting down the platoon that took the love of her life, the „horrors of war“ will acquire a whole new meaning. The movie offers enough gore to satisfy horror fans, but it will resonate with its audience on its search to take out all the pain and suffering that the war has caused to the Ukrainian people. After all, what’s better than seeing a bunch of violent invaders getting killed by an incredibly beautiful and badass girl? Our protagonist comes as a symbol of the innocence of Ukraine and its people, and the way war has destroyed it and turned it into an angry creature searching for justice, but never losing what it once was.
Besides this, viewers will also enjoy the presence of the cutest French Bulldog to ever appear in a horror flick. So, come enjoy the most twisted anti-war horror film you might ever see.
