the scary thing was everything in this movie was true! and i'll never view samantha the witch the same way again
Great performance by Elizabeth Montgomery, good period feeling, far superior to most made for TV movies. Shows what the medium is capable of.
This movie scared the shit out of me, only because it is based upon a true story.
When this came out....I was blown away. I guess my first taste of murder....and I love the song. hahahahahahaha
Without trying to sound sadistic, I love this old, true murder mystery. Hadn't realized there was a movie about it. I've only seen what was shown on the History channel. I'll have to try to rent this.
